‘Igbos Will Remain Children Of Anger While Tinubu Hand Over To Northerner’ – Joe Igbokwe

Special Adviser to Lagos State Governor on drainages, Joe Igbokwe has ruled out the possibility of Igbo presidency over failure to play politics.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain said the president-elect, Bola Tinubu will remain Nigeria’s president until 2031 and hand over power to a northerner who will rule the country till 2039.

Igbokwe made this known while replying to a comment on his Facebook post after urging the Igbos to support the Lagos State incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu during the gubernatorial election.

Naija News reports that the Special Adviser to Sanwo-Olu in the Facebook post justified why Igbos residing in Lagos should support the re-election of the governor who is seeking his second term.

According to him, Tinubu had supported prominent Igbo businessmen in Lagos, stating that voting for Sanwo-Olu would be payback for Tinubu’s gesture over the years.

He wrote: “President-Elect ASIWAJU BAT is a good friend of the Igbo and he did his best for prominent Igbo businessmen and women in Lagos including me.

“This is payback time and we should do this by voting for GOV SANWO OLU en-mass on March 18.”

Displeased with the post, a follower with the handle, Ejike Akunna stormed the comment section to ridicule the APC chieftain.

He advised Igbokwe to use his family as adequate payback for Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu.

Ejike wrote: “Dash him your wife and daughters and enthrone him as your family deity. That’ll be adequate payback”.

Angered by Ejike’s comment, Igbokwe declared the former governor of Lagos State would rule the country for eight years and hand over to a northerner while the Igbos will remain children of hatred and anger.

He wrote: “When I see the level of despicable abuses and calling of names coming from the South East young people I run away with the thinking that we Diderot not do our duties as parents. Shame has enveloped me from head to toe.

“Ejike Akunna jisieike, mark my words here, Asiwaju from 2023 to 2031 and another Northerner from 2031 to 2039. We will still be children of anger and children of hate and life goes on. We will be onlookers because we refused to play politics. Dazzol”
