Inspector General of Police, Suleiman Abba has reacted to Oba Rilwan Akiolu’s controversial threat to Igbos.
While briefing journalists on Tuesday, the IGP said the royal father did not threaten Igbos resident in Lagos State.
He said the royal father has denied the allegations.
According to Leadership.ng, he said “On the issue of Oba of Lagos making a statement about who the electorate should vote for in the governorship election, I must tell you I saw it in the media and I tried all my best to verify whether that statement was made and, so far, what I have been able to gather is the fact that the Oba himself denied it, and if the Oba denied it, who am I to say that he did make it.
However, if for any reason that becomes a subject of further efforts to confirm if he did it or not, we will do it,” he said.
