Spokesman of the President-elect, Bayo Onanuga, has said that he owes nobody an apology over his comment on Igbos interference in politics.

Naija News recalls that Onanuga had in a tweet advised Igbos not to ever interfere in Lagos governorship election.

“Let 2023 be the last time of Igbo interference in Lagos politics. Let there be no repeat in 2027. Lagos is like Anambra, Imo, any Nigerian state. It is not No Man’s Land, not Federal Capital Territory. It is Yoruba land. Mind your business,” he tweeted.

Speaking further on his stand, Onanuga explained that his comment only addressed the existential threats to Yoruba people in Lagos State.

Restating his warning, Onanuga tweeted: “Let me make myself abundantly clear: the views I express on Twitter are my personal views.

“I don’t owe anyone any apology for addressing the existential threats of our people. I am after all, first of all a Yoruba, before being a Nigerian.”
