Igbos didn’t develop Lagos, Fani-Kayode knocks Ohanaeze president
Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has rubbished the claim by the Ohanaeze President-General, Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu that Igbos developed Lagos State from swamp to a mega city.
Fani-Kayode described Iwuanyanwu’s comment as a specious lie and a disingenuous nonsense.
Iwuanyanwu had said Igbos are “the pioneers” and “heroes” of modern Lagos State.
He said Igbo forebearers made parts of the state habitable from a swampy area.
