During the governorship election in Lagos last Saturday, there were reports that several Igbo people and also people from other tribes who “look Igbo” were allegedly attacked by thugs and prevented from voting.
You will recall that Nigerian chef and YouTuber, Yemisi Sophie Odusanya, popularly known as Sisi Yemmie, narrated how she and her husband were also not allowed to vote in the governorship election in Lagos state because, according to the thugs, they looked like Igbos.
On Twitter, she claimed that she and her husband were turned away by alleged thugs who claimed that they looked like Igbos. Read here
Sadly, after the election, the alleged attacks continued on Igbos living in Abule-Ado and Abule-Osun in Ojo, Lagos State.
Reacting to the alleged attack, an Igbo woman revealed that the incident led to an altercation between her and her husband.
She said that for the first time, she spoke to her Yoruba husband in a harsh manner, and now she fears that she might end up hurting him.
A Twitter user then advised her to divorce her husband, to which she replied, “I will, because I might end up poisoning him with the way I feel.”
