Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, the youth wing of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, has called for the arrest of a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Femi Fani-Kayode and anyone found to have participated in attacks on the Igbos residing in Lagos State.
Describing the spate of attacks on people from the South-East region and their businesses in Lagos especially after the February 25 presidential election where the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), lost Lagos to Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), the Ohanaeze youths said some personalities including Fani-Kayode should be arrested for making inciting statements before the spate of attacks.
Reacting to a recent fire that gutted a spare parts market in Lagos said to have been carried out by suspected political thugs, where over 200 shops were burnt, the group said the incident could not be disassociated from the inciting statements against the Igbos by prominent people in the state.
