IGP Reacts To Oba Akinolu’s Comments On Igbos

Inspector General of Police, Suleiman Abba has said according to his findings the Oba of Lagos did not make the threat credited to him because the Oba has denied the allegation levelled against him. The IGP made the statement while responding to questions concerning the Oba’s alleged threat. Hear him;

“On the issue of Oba of Lagos making a statement about who the electorate should vote for in the governorship election, I must tell you I saw it in the media and I tried all my best to verify whether that statement was made and, so far, what I have been able to gather is the fact that the Oba himself denied it. And if the Oba denied it, who am I to say that he didn't make it.

However, if for any reason that becomes a subject of further efforts to confirm if he did it or not, I think we will leave that to the future. But for now, this is what I have.” he said.
