Reacting to the Igbo origin claim,  Obasanjo simply said: “It just makes me laugh.”

Obasanjo also said he doesn’t believe anybody in Nigeria should be driven away from any part of the country.

“We own this country together,” he said.

He added: “Having ensured that the Yorubas, Igbos and Hausas all came together to fight the war of unity in Nigeria, and not to fight Igbos to go, but to come.

“So if anybody says to me, that somebody should leave any place, he will be the one to leave.”
