From Vanguard
Governor Okorocha made the appeal during a meeting with
selected stakeholders in the state over the weekend
"What I can only do is to continue to appeal to the president to
consider the South-East in his appointments. And as far as I am
concerned, the president had executed what the office empowers him to
do, and it is believed that he did that in the best interest of the
nation.
Again, most of the appointments the president has so
far made are like his personal staff. I don’t think South-East will ever
be forgotten in this administration, we will get our due. In fact, if
you ask me, I would say we should be more interested in the projects
coming down to the South-East, and as much as we can get. The projects
will bring about development of the South-East. Although the South-East
had expected so much, we believe all will be well with the Buhari
presidency and for the development of the South-East. It is wrong for
some people to begin to use the issue to incite the people of the
South-east against the president.
The government is about to celebrate its one hundred days, and the
appointments are just beginning to come, and by and large, the
South-East will get their dues. The point is that we cannot begin to
judge President Buhari with the appointments so far made. We cannot
obviously use it to judge his intention. I think he means well for the
nation and with every geo-political zone inclusive. So, let us give him a
chance” he said
