…says Tinubu was very good to Ndigbo when he was governor
President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, has vowed to fight those unjustly fighting President Bola Tinubu.
Iwuanyanwu said the entire Igbo nation would support Tinubu’s administration.
He urged the president to give Igbos their rights and be fair to the Southeast race.
The President-General spoke during a courtesy visit to the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, in his palace on Saturday.
Iwaunyanwu also disclosed that Igbos were told not to vote for Tinubu in 2023 because it was “our turn.”
He said: “Bola was very good to us when he was governor. He treated Ndigbo very well. During the time of the governorship, Igbo in Lagos came to me, and I told them to support Governor Sanwo Olu.
“But the President of Nigeria today is Bola Tinubu. Ohanaeze has pledged our loyalty to support our brother.
“What we want from Tinubu is justice, fairness, and equity. We don’t want to take another person’s state; whatever is our right should be given to us.
“We are going to support him, we are going to be loyal to him, and anybody who fights him unjustly, we are going to join him to fight such a person, but all we want is for him to give us our rights.”
