![We’ll Invoke Lagos Deities To Chase Away Igbos And Inherit Their Properties - Remi Tinubu [Video]](https://media.kanyidaily.com/2022/09/05090535/Bola-Tinubu-1024x576.jpeg "We’ll Invoke Lagos Deities To Chase Away Igbos And Inherit Their Properties - Remi Tinubu [Video] 1")
Video Of Remi Tinubu Threatening Igbos In Lagos
In the video which was captured on the 2019 election day, the lawmaker was heard threatening to invoke deities in Lagos to drive the Igbos out of the state and inherit their wealth.
“We will entreat all the deities of Lagos to chase Igbo people out. Igbo who didn’t marry Yoruba, we will inherit their belongings. Given how much we love Igbo, you now want to spoil everything.
“You are not the only tribe in this place, Hausa are here, we accommodate them, ‘Calabar’ are here, we accommodate them. But Igbo are proving difficult. We will inherit them,” she said in Yoruba language.
Mrs Tinubu’s comments have sparked mixed reactions on social media with some people claiming she was merely joking, others said she was echoing her disdain for the Igbo tribe.
Watch the video and see some reactions below:
"We will invoke Lagos deities to chase away the Igbos who refused to learn our language. Those that insisted not to marry the Yorubas, we will inherit their belongings."
That's Remi Tinubu, the Vex Lady in her true colours. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh. pic.twitter.com/YN85Pllqax

Remi Tinubu is a careless talker. If you understand Yoruba deeply, you will know the interpretation given to her words is not the actual meaning but she is a very careless talker for someone who is a politician. Mind you, Remi Tinubu is not yoruba.

"We Will Invoke Lagos Deities/gods To Chase The Igbos Packing. Any Igbo Person That Can’t Marry a Yoruba Should Leave Our Land Because We Will Inherit Your Properties. God Will Not Allow You Take Over Us. We Shall Dominate You People Here No Matter What". ~ Senator Remi Tinubu. pic.twitter.com/33BQbrhbMb

I know the Tinubu campaign on here is majorly built on threatening the Igbos. It isn’t a cause to worry because we’ve even been threatened by Oba of Lagos during the Ambode Guber elections, but having a bigot like Remi Tinubu as wife of GCFR in Aso rock, will be a tad scary 🥶

Remi Tinubu video is trending.. when in the same video, she said "despite the love we have for you" "others are here and we accommodated them"… but ppl choose to read a different meaning to all of the video… This is why Education is important…

I wondered why people expected Remi Tinubu to be a godly and well behaved woman. A wife of a drug Lord can never be virtuous woman. RCCG ordained her as a pastor to enjoy some share of the her wealth and not because she’s called by God. May she never be Nigerian first lady.

Remi Tinubu is such a low life, very shameless woman, these has gone beyond politics, why the hate against the Igbos? Every fucking time, she says hateful word towards the Igbos. The most shameful part of this, is that she’s still a pastor at Redeem church. It’s just unfortunate.

Let’s not forget Remi Tinubu once locked up a woman’s shop in Lagos island market because the woman flaunted a better gele than her at one owambe. We can never afford to have this kind of woman as our First Lady. RCCG pastor by wristband; A witch by heart! Tueh

Sometimes I wish RCCG were like Jehovah’s Witnesses. You can’t consistently bring the image of the church into disrepute. They’ll disfellowship you no matter who you are and they’ll shun you like a leper. Remi Tinubu has dealt with RCCG ‘s image so much.

Remi tinubu is the embodiment of ghetto. Nightmare on Elms Street type of nasty. tejuosho, lagos island market knows her gist.
The type of person that tasted power and decided to be the mean girl.

Remi Tinubu is from Ogun State, an Immigrant in Lagos State. She will be 61yrs on Sept 21, the same age group with Peter Obi. Strangely, she is a mother & a "Pastor" that is so full of HATE for the Igbos.
So sad for a woman that wants to be Nigerians 1st Lady.
God forbid BAThing.— Emmanuel I. Onwuezobe (@IbekweOnwuezobe) September 4, 2022
KanyiDaily recalls that Bola Tinubu was also seen in another video telling a physically-challenged man identified as Charles Nnamani that she doesn’t trust Igbos.
