All Progressives Congress, APC, Sunday, accused Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State, of threatening the country's unity and whipping up tribal sentiment by sensationalising the recent 'deportation' of some indigenes of the state from Lagos.
.
The party in a statement by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, called on Obi to apologise to Nigerians, noting that only 14 Anambra indigenes were deported and not 72, as widely claimed.
.
But National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Chief Victor Umeh, in a reaction, said there was no basis for Obi to apologise to anyone, as he did not err in any way.
.
According to Umeh, "Why should Obi apologise to somebody, who did a wrong thing? There is no law in Nigeria that empowers anybody to deport Nigerians from one part of the country to the other.
.
"What Babatunde Fashola did is illegal and unconstitutional. Nigerians have the fundamental right to reside in any part of Nigeria.

Well if he's been told to do that and he also feels he should then I don't think anything should stop him....Good one!
