Oshodi Rep Accused of Using Yoruba Constituency Grant to Empower Only Igbo Women – “We Won’t Allow an Igbo State Within Yorubaland”

Hon. Jessey Okey-Joe Onuakalusi, representative for Oshodi-Isolo Federal Constituency in Yorubaland, has been accused of collecting millions of naira in grants and distributing them exclusively to Igbo women, sidelining Yoruba beneficiaries.

Critics are furious, warning that such actions will not be tolerated. “Dear Igbos, you will never be allowed to create an Igbo State within Yorubaland. If you don’t respect us, we will force it from you,” one source declared.
