Vote for Ambode or you will die in Lagoon- Oba Akiolu tells Igbo

The Oba of Lagos, at a meeting with Igbo leaders expressed his preference in the coming gubernatorial election in Lagos. He urged the Igbos in the state to vote his man, Ambode. 

He then said further that, if they fail to vote for him , they will die in  Lagoon. 

Here is a manuscript of his speech according to Thisday; 

"On Saturday, if anyone of you goes against Ambode who I picked, that is your end. If it doesn’t happen within seven days, just know that I am a bastard and it is not my father who gave birth to me.

“Jonathan is my son and I speak to him everyday. By the grace of God, I am the owner of Lagos for the time being. This is an undivided chair. The palace belongs to the dead and those coming in the future.

“On Saturday, if anyone of you, I swear in the name of God,Allah, goes against my wish that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos State, the person is going to die inside this water.

“I’m not ready to beg you. Nobody knew how I picked Ambode. Jimi (Agbaje) is my blood relation and I told him that he cannot be governor in Lagos for now. The future belongs to God. I am not begging anybody, but what you people cannot do in Onitsha, Aba or anywhere, don’t do it here.

“If you do what I want, Lagos will continue to be prosperous for you. If you go against my wish, you will perish in the water.”
