That some communities in Lagos have had the Oro festival thrusted on them is no news.
The Oro festival is usually arranged with the cooperation of the traditional ruler of a community. Most of the traditional rulers in Lagos state are educated.
Even if they could lay some claims to being educated, methinks their patriotism needs to be queried
I believe in freedom of thought, religion, and so on. But then, I also know it’s where one person’s freedom ends that the other person’s begins.
Lagos as a cosmopolitan state has so many people that may not be advocates of the Oro. Where are these people’s rights?
Moreover, why are some people bent on compounding Nigeria’s problems at these testy times?
There’ll be an election on Saturday. From what we saw during the presidential election, INEC is yet to get its acts together.
Is the Oro festival not putting more stress on the election?
Is there no governor in Lagos state? Will the festival give the governor an undue advantage over fellow competitors?
By the way, there are law enforcement agencies in that state. Let them do their duty!
