In an exclusive interview with Expdonaloaded blog, the Oba of Lagos, Riliwanu Akiolu, says there is a need for non-indigenes
in Lagos State to respect the tradition and culture of their host.
“Eze Odimegwu, who is a former CEO of
Nigerian Breweries, is still my best friend as well as many others. The
Obi of Onitsha came to visit me here a few days ago. When you go to a
place, you have to respect the host leaders, particularly the
traditional leaders there because you are coming to benefit from their
success. The people of Lagos are the friendliest and most accommodating people in Nigeria.”

misrepresentation of what truly transpired. He said the issue was
twisted by those
who wanted to gain political advantage ahead of the governorship
election but God put them to shame.“Those who orchestrated the entire
incident know themselves and I tell you, those (Igbo leaders) who came
here on that day understand me a lot and have even been coming since
then,” he said.
