The Governor of Ebonyi State and
Chairman of South East Governors’ Forum, David Umahi has disclosed that
President Muhammadu Buhari assured him of addressing problems facing the region
while they were in New York for United Nations summit.
He said this while fielding
questions from Sun regarding agitations for the actualization of Sovereign
State of Biafra and the recent proscription of the Indigenous People of Biafra,
IPOB.
Umahi said, “I had private
discussion with Mr. President in New York and I want to assure the
South-Easterners that the President will address all our problems.
“Nigeria is going to see peace.
We are stronger when we are bigger. Let me also tell our people that we are
playing too much politics. It is only in the South-East that you see petitions
that they are piling in the EFCC. Everything is now about politics and we left
our hard work for politics.
“I want to thank the Governors of
South-East and the North for their efforts in ending the ugly incident that
occurred recently. Let me assure Nigerians that Mr. President has heard you and
he is going to address all the issues raised.
“There is no need to continue
insulting our leaders and abusing other tribes. No need trying to pose danger
to the existence of our people. We are not untrustworthy people. We are very,
very trustworthy. We are hardworking and well cultured people and so, we have
made our points.”
