Speaking from his Ikoyi residence on Saturday, Dr. Aguene expressed concern over the recurring exclusion of Igbos from the political process in Lagos. He alleged that many Igbo residents were either denied the right to vote or deliberately shut out from fully participating in the elections.
He further claimed that the political system in Lagos systematically blocks Igbo candidates from contesting key positions such as council chairmanship and councillorship, despite their substantial contributions to the state’s development.
