Goods estimated to be worth billions of Naira were destroyed after the arsonists had killed a 65-year-old security guard in the market.Ohanaeze in a statement issued on Thursday, which was signed by its National Publicity Secretary Dr Alex Ogbonnia, said the burning of the spare parts market, is in consonance with the various threats issued by both the"lowly and barbaric" hoodlums before the general elections that a vote against the All Progressives Congress will incur wrath.

"They strive to cooperate with and add vital infrastructural values to the host community. This is the ideal, worthy of emulation."It must also be pointed out that before the general election, various ethnic cultural groups such as the Afenifere, an umbrella socio-cultural organisation for the Yoruba; the PANDEF, the Middle Belt, Arewa groups, among others were at the forefront of the Obi-Datti movement and thousands of Yoruba youths were deeply committed to the cause.

Let them continued to throw fire in their own businesses by themselves thinking it will draw sympathy for their ipobian agenda or disruption in transition into new administration, they're just deceiving themselves because the election has been won and gone period

Can you people talk independently for ones? Every time 'international intervention'. Stop being inferior.

Fight for yourself

This problem was created by the former governor of Lagos State bola Ahmed tinubu because of the hatred he have on igbo people

Let God just deliver Nigeria from APC -- APC is just 'A Painful Curse'

So bad and wickedness. Somebody’s hand work

International intervention for what Ohanaeze? Why don’t you call for international intervention on Igbo killing Igbo in Igbo land; hypocrites.

As if it is only Igbo market that is affected

I would be extremely happy to witness a day when Igbos will all move back to their land and then they will realise nobody in this world can live independently no matter how successful.

Market burn Kano, Maiduguri all those places are not Igbo is only in Yoruba land, u people want to bring unrest come south west,as u did in east

A strategy by oppositions. By those who don’t want the progress of a state. By those who their eyez on the throne

You really don't know what Igbos are? They are 'ana egbu achara, achara na-eto ogologo'. You garrit? If you don't garrit you fogerrit!

Lagos State indigines in Lagos, be of good behavior and become industrious like the Igbos residing in your state. You won't succeed in life by destroying Igbo lives and property. No one can destroy Igbo, except God. Take it or leave it.

The igbo people need to be protected, this insult is too much. Our Elders must talk about it , hate is a crime while is it that,we can’t be allowed to do our business in the country. Igbo everywhere make the economy to grow we are not destructive but a builder, we hate to kill .

What is wrong with this Ohanaeze you only condemn without action and your people are losing their properties and lives you keep on condemning we need action not condemning each time there was an attack on Igbos we need to rise and strike back

OHANEZE NDI MGBU NA NDI ORI IS EVEN WORSE THAN BANDITS

Which Ohaneze? The same ones that were bribed by current govt sponsoring and encouraging thugs & tribalism!

Ohaneze is hypocritical sellouts

Ohanaeze too funny

The only international interventions we need is referendum.

Medications after death

An Igbo-dominated market in Lagos burnt down after Igbos in Lagos were threatened. After the witch cried at night, the baby died in the morning. Fani Kayode, Prophet Godwin, ahoy! Yoruba ronu. Ndigbo kwechiri.

Do we really have Ohaneze? What we have is a bunch of hungry folks who have two faces. They dance to the boiling of the kettle.

We don't need all dis stupid attacks on anyone, we should be free to live anywhere in d country. Let people vote candidates of dere choices, no be by force na.

Killing on every Monday and burning of property no need of international intervention, Sars killing in Anambra by gistlover no need of international intervention, Ohanaeze just dey play Dey Play Dey Play Dey Play Dey Play Dey Play Dey......

Suna hauka ne

Funny enough those attacking igbos are not stronger, richer and educated more than igbos. Ohanaze should make peace with Igbo youths on way forward and this nonsense will stop. If they do not want one Nigeria anymore then let's divide in peace to avoid another civil war

Ohaneze should rather demand for referendum. That's the noble thing to do now. We're not one.

The Continuous Detention Of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu And Igbo Youths, Killing Of Igbo People,Destroying Of Igbo Properties, In Nigeria Has Become An Insult,Humiliation Too Every (IGBO MAN AND WOMAN) MaziNnamdikanu

Ohanaeze do you now agree that you are not A Nigeria ? your eyes will soon clear.

Tinubu will not donate 100million there except it is Katsina and Kano!

Ohaneze stop imposing yourselves on Igbo people, you're only a tool for conquest.

good morning to all those evil and devil ohaneze called themselves elders

Useless ohanaeze when we call for Biafra restoration you will invite the terrorist army of the zoo to kill your brother's now yoruba people are killing our people instead of you old fool's to call for a revenge your talking rubbish

Maiduguri and Kano Market fire: Attack on who? Ohanaeze should answer me o.

Those responsible should be arrested and face full wrath of the law

Only ReferendumNow for Biafra's that will free us from those enemies

This is total wickedness, all those behind this evil act should be sent to jail forever.

Political Thugs Burn Down Auto Spare Parts Market In Lagos State, Shoot Several Persons | Sahara ReportersSome suspected political thugs have burnt down Akere spare parts market in the Apapa Ajegunle area of Lagos State. SaharaReporters gathered that the hoodlums stormed the market around 2am on Wednesday and shot a security guard and two other persons before razing down the market's facilities. In a video captured at the scene of the incident which was obtained by SaharaReporters, a man privy to the incident said, “A security man and two other guys were shot dead and they have gone to bury them immediately.” This thing is not good oh! Watin these Igbo people go una? These Tinubu/APC thugs used to attack and kill Northerners in Lagos until Northerners started fighting back. Today they run whenever they see Northerners in Lagos. This is my advice to non Yorubas especially Igbos in Lagos, if you don't fight back these agberos won't stop Is not political thug stop accusing APC the yorubas that are jealous and envy of igbos did it, our success will choke them
