What Buhari Told Us About IPOB – Ekweremadu
The South-East Senators met with President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday, September 26 over the agitations and proscription of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB by the Federal Government.
As the National Assembly returned from their recess of over two months, Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu led other Senators from the zone with intention to deliberate with the Presidency so that the tension may be doused.
Addressing State House Correspondents after the meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, Ekweremadu said they had fruitful discussion with the president over pressing issues affecting
the South East.
He said:
“For us from the South East, we believe that dialogue is better than any other form of engagement.
“So, we decided to visit the President and present to him some of the concerns of the South East including the issues of roads, general infrastructure; the rail, airports and others.”
On the resolution from the meeting with the President, Ekweremadu assured that Buhari expressed hope to take to look into the affairs.
“We also discussed the issue of security with him and of course the issue of IPOB. We had a good conversation and he promised to look into the issues”, he stated.
Are you begging the President to do the right thing for every Nigerian irrespective of tribe or tongue.?
The President of any country is supposed to lead by example.
Sectionalism, ethnicity of any kind should be disregarded because he is the father of all.
No good President massacres his children, it is unheard of , not in this era, no matter what.
If the President does not respect the rule of law then what does he expect of his subjects.
The youths of the southern part of this country will never forget.
Where has reasoning gone to, that the issues of agitation can not be looked into.
If things are okay who will think of separating from Nigeria.
Afterall without the heightened agitation of Nnamdi Kanu, nobody in Nigeria today will be talking about restructuring as is the subject matter today.
South eastern and south south governors should know that as far as politics into elective offices is concerned today or in the future, their political relevance and career is over.
The southerners have learnt their bitter lesson that those we elected are the same people that called for the destruction of the youths,the leaders of tomorrow.
