  • Police have detained Eze Igbo for threatening to invite IPOB to Lagos.

  • The DSS and police joint force stormed his residence on Saturday morning and he fled.

  • He was later apprehended at a hotel located in Ejigbo.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that Fredrick Nwajagu, who holds the title of Eze Ndigbo of Ajao Estate in Lagos State, has been taken into custody by the police over recent threats.

Nwajagu made headlines on Friday for his remarks in a viral video, where he suggested that he may call upon members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra to safeguard the property belonging to Igbo residents in Lagos state.

He said, “IPOB, we will invite them. They have no job. All of the IPOB will protect all of our shops. And we have to pay them. We have to mobilise for that. We have to do that.

“We must have our security so that they will stop attacking us at midnight, in the morning, and in the afternoon.

“When they discover that we have our security before they will come, they will take caution. I am not saying a single word to be hidden. I am not hiding my words, let my words go viral. Igbo must get their right and get a stand in Lagos State,” he added.

A source in the police who preferred anonymity told journalists that the Igbo leader was arrested on Saturday morning by a joint team of policemen and operatives of the Department of State Services.
