Guber elections: This is the time to cement and renew our relationship with the Yoruba nation – Joe Igbokwe tells Igbos to vote APC

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos State, Joe Igbokwe, has urged Igbos in the state to vote for the APC.

He said it will be an opportunity for Igbo to cement their relationship with the Yoruba Nation.

He shared this in a Facebook post. According to him, it is not time to burn bridges but build new bridges of hope, friendship, brotherhood, mutual respect and understanding

He said: “We have recorded great and monumental progress in Lagos since 1970.

“No Umunnem, this is the time to cement and renew our relationship with the Yoruba nation that dates back to the 50s and 60s. A lot is at stake in Lagos. Igbo have built huge business empires in Lagos, and we are not taking all these for granted. Yoruba are good and they accommodate people.

“We voted in last Saturday’s Presidential Elections, and I know that our son is on the ballot and you voted for him. It is not out of place because he is our son. We played the politics, and we have moved on. Politics is fun. Politics is a game. Politics is deep. Saturday, March 11, and let us not burn bridges but build new bridges of hope, friendship, brotherhood, mutual respect and understanding.”
