Igbo Progressives Beg Yoruba In Lagos To Overlook Provocation

A political group, South East/Igbo APC Progressives Roundtable (SIAPRO) has appealed to the Yoruba and compatriots in Lagos State to overlook any provocation, disrespect and or insult that they may have endured flowing from the last election cycle in the state.

The group said, “Lagos State is no less Yoruba land as Anambra State is Igbo land just like Lagos is not a no man’s land, just like Ebonyi State is not a no man’s land.”

Addressing a press conference yesterday in Abuja, the convener,  Dr Uche Diala, said any contrary view to these is as irresponsible as it is provocative, adding that these are facts that must be stated clearly. 

Diala said Igbo have been known for ages to be noble guests who do nothing but add value to their hosts in a symbiotic relationship, adding that Igbos have never been known to be a burden to their hosts.
