Popular Nigerian song star, Peter Okoye of the P-Square has frowned at
attacks against Igbos in Lagos state ahead of the governorship
election.
According to him, politicians are behind the attacks.
Peter stated this via a tweet on Wednesday following the fire
outbreak at Akere Spare Parts Market in Olodi-Apapa, Ajegunle, Lagos.
The arsonists who are yet to be identified set the market dominated
by Igbos ablaze, with property worth millions of Naira destroyed over
suspected political reasons.
Speaking further, he noted that the two major tribes in Lagos
State, the Igbo and the Yoruba, do not hate each other, saying that
Nigerians must realize that politicians do not want the best for them no
matter what tribe they belong to.
“I am an lgbo man married to a Yoruba woman! Igbos do not hate
Yorubas. Neither do Yorubas hate Igbos. Politicians are using tribes as
an excuse to cover their evil.
“They don’t like you whether Igbo or Yoruba. They only care about their pockets. Be wiser,” he tweeted.
