Moghalu lamented that ethnic-identity supremacy has hobbled Nigeria’s potential as Africa’s most populous country, stymying both governance and the economy.

His words were contained in a post on his X handle on Friday, following genocidal threats on X against the Igbo tribe, which called for their relocation.

DAILY POST reported that there are calls on social media, trending under the hashtag #IgboMustGo on X, demanding the forced relocation of Igbo people from Lagos and other Southwest states.

However, Moghalu said the online #IgboMustLeaveLagos campaign is hate, criminal speech, calling on leaders to take strong action against the ethnic-cleansing propaganda.

His words: “The online #IgboMustLeaveLagos campaign is hate, criminal speech. Our leaders need to take strong action against this kind of ethnic-cleansing propaganda similar to the Radio/TV Milles Collines demonisation of the Tutsi in Rwanda 30 years ago.

“Not too long ago ago Nigerian state governors went to Rwanda to be taught the art of #GoodGovernance. Nigerian leaders taking strong action would demonstrate that such hate has no place in our country.

“Ethnic-identity supremacy has hobbled Nigeria’s potential as Africa’s most populous country, stymying both governance and the economy. We have become like crabs who can’t move

forward, only sideways or backwards. I commend Lagos State Governor @jidesanwoolu for stepping out and calling for an end to this dangerous nonsense.”
