Recently, some elements on social media launched a campaign, warning Igbo residents to leave the state and other places in the South-West by August 20, 2024.
The faceless group promoting the ethnic-hate campaign threatened a 10-day protest action that would lead to a forceful exit of Igbo if they failed to leave voluntarily.
However, millions of Nigerians and groups, including former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu swiftly condemned the campaign and ordered security agencies to identify the promoters for arrest and prosecution.
