'Those that our people voted for genuinely for 10 years did not touch those things that Buhari has tried to do now.'
Kalu told journalists at the weekend that for 10 years, the Igbo voting pattern had brought them more deprivation until now.He said: “President Muhammadu Buhari, who they did not vote for, is building the Niger Bridge and doing the Port Harcourt-Abah-Umuahia-Enugu Expressway and Enugu-Awka-Onitsha Expressway.
“But when you look at it, service chiefs are like the personal staff of the President, they are not really constitutionally owned because you only work with military men you trust.” Kalu, who stated that those they appoint might not be the best but that is the trend because everybody wants to be in control of his security.
Ezeobika, in a statement in Abuja yesterday, alleged that while the entire South East region is inordinately, intolerably and inexcusably marginalized, Uba is devoting so much energy on things that least matter to the people. He said he was not surprised at Uba’s line of thought as it is a well-established fact that no one gives what he does not have.
