An APC chieftain raised four boys with an Igbo woman - Okonkwo reacts to tribal remarks against Igbos

Kenneth Okonkwo, a chieftain of the Labour Party has chided Femi Fani-Kayode, a leading member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for his tribal comments on Igbos.

Fani-Kayode, has been at the forefront of calls for Yoruba’s to own Lagos in the buildup to the governs hip election in the state.

The former Minister of Aviation via his various social media platforms said that an Igbo person should never lead a Yoruba state like Lagos. His comments was a jab to the Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the governorship candidate in the state who is not wholly Yoruba.

Rhodes-Vivour’s father is Yoruba while his mother is Igbo.

Reacting, Kenneth said: “First of all I am surprised you are still taking those army of people seriously. Just go out and read their tweets. If you don’t like what they are saying, just keep quiet, they will soon change.”

“Just go to the contradictory statements they make even about themselves.”

“I know of one of them who is telling you that if your father is Yoruba and your mother is Igbo, then you are Igbo and that person never raised a male child except through an Igbo woman, how do you listen to such people?”
