Iwuanyanwu on Yorubas: Oluwo sues for Peace, commends Ohanaeze's interferenceThe Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has called Yorubas to exercise restraint on the statement credited to Igbo Chieftain, Emmanuel FFK was one of our soldiers before he jumped ship over a pot of porridge. Papa Adebanjo, Oshuntokun, Okupe, Farotimi, Chief George, General Williams, Nobel Laurette Prof Soyinka etc are people who had stood for equity and justice for the Igbo people Never forget, Quintessential Mr Marcaroni, Beloved late Chief Gani Fawehinmi, TOS Benson, Adeniran Ogunsanya and so many of the men and women of the Yoruba stock are good people to the igbos and other nationalities of Nigeria. On our side, we are rather fewer than them that had worked for them:- Joe Igbokwe, MCK Ajuluchukwu, Steve Evulocha for Pa Awolowo, Zach Orji, Onoh, Director of VON, Uzodinma, Uzor Kalu etc I cannot remember many more but they are certainly more than these personalities!
