“APC has done nothing for the South-East” – Abaribe, gives reasons

Senate Minority Leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe (PDP – Abia South), has said that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has done nothing for the South-east region.

Speaking in an interview on Channels Television on Friday, the Abia Senator disclosed that the APC has been unfair to the region adding that all the region wants is ‘justice and equity’. He opined that if the Presidency is leaving from the north and coming to the south, then the South-East must be given a chance.

He also condemned the Muhammadu Buhari-led government for clamping down on #EndSARS protesters and labelling them terrorists. He asked the federal government to own up to its mistakes during the protests which led to widespread violence and destruction of lives and properties.

Abaribe noted that the #EndSARS protests showed the failure of the APC government and how it could not handle such a delicate matter. He said the present government is mired in the past and has no connection to the 21st century and the information age.

He accused the the current administration of using propaganda to get to power and now blocking Nigerians from speaking through its agencies. The lawmaker also berated Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State for claiming that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has been unfair to the Southeast. He opined that the governor has another agenda for defecting to the APC and not because of the alleged injustice meted out to the Igbos.

“The governor is free to leave for any party but he should stop blackmailing the PDP and its leadership”.

He noted that the governor does not have the support of the members of the National Assembly from the state who are the true representatives of the people. He further revealed that Umahi’s defection will be gauged in the 2023 general elections, urging Nigerians not to place value on the movement of the governor to the APC.

Biafran is the only solution

The problem with Nigeria is NOT political parties but visionary and sincere leaders who wpild put right policies, right infrastructure and sincerely spending money budgeted.

The truth is PDP didn't also do any significant thing in SE in 16 years. PDP and APC are the same. If it became necessary for Senator Abaribe to survive politically, he will jejely defect tomorrow. It's about their personal aspirations. They keep raping us, changing parties when it's convenience for them and we keep following them like sheep and even paying them for the rape.

With huge Senate allowances, Senator Abaribe is like an overfed dog that barks to impress but doesn't bite when the chips are down. Where was Abaribe the leader of PDP in the Senate when the budget for railway network was approved with South East receiving only marginal links? Did he speak up when the Senate Committee on Niger Delta, of which he is a 'perpetual' member, embezzle projects' funds year after year? People like Abaribe makes noise, playing to the gallery and quietly share allowances without any true DEVELOPMENTAL ACTIVISM.

Exactly, pdp has been in power in Abia State for 21 uninterrupted years, please Abaribe should mention any success story in any sector in Abia State from education, to agribusiness? I am sure that it is because of Hausa Fulani & Buhari that there is no infrastructure, or social development anywhere in Aro Chukwu state? Useless tribalistic Bigot.
