The Lagos State Police Command has reacted to threats
against the Igbo issued by the chairman of the Lagos State Parks Management
Committee, Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, ahead of the gubernatorial
election.
Lagos Commissioner of Police Idowu Owohunwa gave a reaction
while appearing on Arise Television’s Newsday program on Friday.
Recall that MC Oluomo had, in viral videos,
threatened Igbo in Lagos who will not vote for his party, the All Progressives
Congress, APC, to stay at home during tomorrow’s governorship election.
“We have begged them. If they don’t want to vote for us, it
is not a fight. Tell them, mama Chukwudi, if you don’t want to vote for us, sit
down at home,” he said.
Owohunwa in his reaction said the video clips are being
reviewed and the threats are subjects of ongoing investigation.
He said: “Yes, I can confirm that all the video clips are
being reviewed. The statement, the assertions, the threats are subjects of
ongoing investigation. And as we proceed, if facts are established against the
provision of the law, nobody is above the law in this country. Our existence is
regulated by law and we are bound together by law. The political process is
regulated by law and nobody can be above that. So if these allegations are
established, you can be sure that appropriate criminal and legal proceedings
will be initiated against the specific actors.”
Tomorrow is around the corner, we'll know whether Lagos belongs to agbelo oluomo or not
