We’re investigating MC Oluomo’s alleged threat against Igbo – Lagos CP

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa, has said that an investigation has been launched into the alleged threat issued against Igbo by the Lagos State Parks Management Committee Chairman, Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo. Owohunwa made this known during an interview with Arise TV on Friday, March 17, as he discussed the readiness of the state police command to secure voters during Saturday, March 18th governorship and State House of Assembly elections. LIB had earlier reported that MC Oluomo, in a viral video, had threatened that Igbo people living in Lagos should not bother to come to the polls if they will not for the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC). In the video, MC Oluomo said,  Please tell them, we have begged them. If they dont vote for us, it is not a fight. Tell them that Chukwudis mother, if you dont vote for us, sit down at home. Do you understand? Sit down at home.  Reacting to the threat” today, CP Owohunwa saidWe condemn in the strongest possible terms any act, statement, or an action that could be interpreted as hate speech or that could be interpreted as deepening political tension regardless of the brain that might be behind it. With regards to this specific video you mentioned, it is currently a subject of a detailed investigation.    The police boss also issued a note of warning to all those brewing violence in the state, stressing that they should desist or face the full wrath of the law, adding that the law enforcement agents will not spare any lawbreaker.  Of course, we are deploying our cyber security access to solve that. And, I can assure you that nobody is above the law. This country is regulated. Anybody that tries to use his position, or his influence on others to deepen hate, or engender political tension which could, of course, snowball into violence, it remains the responsibility and the mandate of the Nigeria Police to investigate such cases.This specific one you mentioned will not be in isolation. It is already a subject of review. And it will be in the interest of the actors behind it and all others that might wish to also engage in such ill-informed, indirect action to be very careful, to be firmly warned because in the fullness of time, the full law will take its course and it will be not different in this instance if established, Owohunwa said  Watch the video of MC Oluomo speaking below       View this post on Instagram           A post shared by Lindaikejiblog (@lindaikejiblogofficial) The post Were investigating MC Oluomos alleged threat against Igbo Lagos CP appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
