Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Nigeria Police Force has reacted to the threats issued by the Lagos State Parks Management Committee Chairman, Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo, against Igbos in the state ahead of the governorship election.<\/p>\n

Force spokesman, Adejobi Olumuyiwa, described the threat by MC Oluomo against Igbos as a joke.<\/p>\n

A video had surfaced online of MC Oluomo threatening Igbos in Lagos State against voting for another political party.<\/p>\n

MC Oluomo said Igbos who would not vote for the All Progressives Congress, APC, should sit at home.<\/p>\n

Reacting, the Force Public Relations Officer said nobody has the right to stop the people of Lagos from voting for the candidate of their choice.<\/p>\n

Featuring on Channels Television, Olumuyiwa assured that the Lagos State Police Command has commenced an investigation into MC Oluomo\u2019s inciting comments.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI saw a video of MC Oluomo with one mama Chidinma \u2013 an Igbo woman debunking that threat, that it\u2019s not true, it\u2019s just a joke he was making with a particular woman. So, let us take it as a joke, like he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut, nobody has the right and audacity to tell Nigerians not to come out and vote; it\u2019s not allowed and not proper. MC Oluomo has come out to debunk it, so let\u2019s leave it that it\u2019s not true.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Commissioner of Police in Lagos had debunked it, and MC Oluomo himself has done the same, so Lagosians should go out and vote for the candidate of their choice.\u201d<\/p>\n
