Some indigenes of Awori have stormed the Lagos residence of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to protest the marginalisation of their people in the appointment of public officials.
The protesters said none of the Awori indigenes from their communities had been appointed into public office in the last 16 years despite their support for the Lagos State Government and Tinubu.
The group, on Sunday, urged Tinubu and the APC-led government in the state to address their complaint.
One of the leaders of the Awori, Chief Lateef Balogun, said,
“I am the Ashipa of Agboyi. We have been supporting Asiwaju Tinubu since he was elected as the Lagos State governor on the platform of the defunct Alliance for Democracy. We have always done our best to ensure that his party wins elections in the state, but what we get in return is marginalisation.
