MC Oluomo said Igbos who do not vote for the All Progressives Congress, APC, should stay at home.

Reacting during an interview on Channels TV, Force’s public relations officer said no one has the right to prevent the people of Lagos from voting for the candidate of their choice.

He said: “I saw a video of MC Oluomo with a Chidinma mum – an Igbo woman debunking this threat, that it’s not true, it’s just a joke he was making with a particular woman. So let’s take it as a joke, like he said.

“But no one has the right and the audacity to tell Nigerians not to come and vote; it is not allowed and not appropriate. MC Oluomo has come out to debunk it, so let’s just say it’s not true.

“Lagos Commissioner of Police has debunked it, and MC Oluomo himself has done the same, so Lagosians should go out and vote for the candidate of their choice.”
