You Have No Hatred For Igbos And Have Treated All States With Equality – Umahi by Nobody: 3:07pm On Oct 14, 2017 |
President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday
assured stakeholders from the South East
that the region will benefit more from roads
and coastal rail projects, which are of critical
importance to the economy.
During an audience with leaders from the
region led by the Deputy Senate President
Ike Ekweremadu, the President declared that
the 2nd Niger Bridge, the East-West Road
and the Coastal rail project, are receiving
utmost attention from his administration.
The President said counterpart funding
from the Chinese government would
substantially fund these projects, which
when completed will improve the welfare,
well-being and economy of the people in the
region.
“I know the Chinese are very competent in
handling such projects and we will ensure
that we get the money for the projects to
take off.
“I thank you for articulating your demands
and I want to assure that we are doing our
best for the country. If we can stop people
from stealing, then there will be more
resources to put into projects that will
create employment for Nigerians,’’ the
President said.
Responding to allegations of under-
representation of Igbos in his government,
the President said: “ I gave south-east four
substantive ministers in the ministries of
Foreign Affairs, Trade and Investment,
Science and Technology and Labour.
“Seven states in the North got Ministers of
State and of the two Ministries headed by
your sons, I cannot take any decision on
foreign policy and investments without their
input,’’ he said.
The President also promised the leaders,
comprising governors and ministers from
the region, the President of Ohaneze, Chief
Nnia Nwodo and representatives from the
National Assembly, that he will visit states in
the zone soon.
“I want to assure you that I came into
government with a clear conscience and I
will also leave with a clear conscience,’’ he
said.
Earlier, the President of Ohaneze, while
articulating the demands of the zone to the
President highlighted the issue of state
creation, restructuring, federal projects in
the South East namely Enugu-Onitsha road,
Enugu-Port Harcourt road and Aba-Ikot-
Ekpene road, among others.
Nwodo also demanded urgent presidential
interventions on the Enugu Airport,
reticulation of the gas-pipelines in the South
East and the standard gauge plan for
railway construction.
Commending the President’s remarkable
achievements on security and the fight
against corruption, Nwodo declared: “we
are ready to work with you. We are
determined to work with you. We know you
are a decisive leader and we know God will
continue to give you the wisdom to govern
Nigeria.’’
Also speaking, Governor Dave Umahi of
Ebonyi State expressed satisfaction on the
outcome of their discussions with the
President on critical issues and topics
affecting the region.
“You have no hatred for any state. You have
treated all states with equality. What one
state gets in the north, the other gets in the
south,’’ the governor said, referring to
budget support facility and stabilisation
fund released to states and local
governments since the inception of the
administration. 1 Like 1 Share |

This people keep deceiving the dullard. Dear Chinakwe's dog, nobody likes you in the East. I'm not going to lie to you. Not even one thousand people in the entire East.Maybe 900 of those are your sugarcane selling brothers and fulani herdmsmen criminals (like your spokesman Garba Shehu described them). Even a few Igbo people who were previously indifferent/unconvinced about Biafra became full time IPOB members and Biafra agitators when social media went rife with pictures and videos of your Nizoorian army terrorists moving house to house and killing people in Aba and Umuahia on the 13th, 14th and 15th of September this year. Let those fake "Igbo leaders" keep deciving you. Onye ara. 1 Like
