Senator Mao Ohiabunwua
representing Abia North district, has told President Muhammadu Buhari, that his
administration would be a flop if he continues to sideline the Igbos.
The Peoples Democratic
Party Senator who made the assertion on Saturday in an interview with
journalists in Umuahia, Abia State capital, expressed disappointment in Buhari
for excluding the South East zone in his appointments so far.
The former Speaker,
ECOWAS parliament, described the deliberate exclusion of the South East from
the political equilibrium of Nigeria by the All Progressives Congress-led
federal government as “a time bomb waiting for explosion.”
He said, “I don’t
believe we can be running this country without Ndigbo. I believe that
sidelining Ndigbo is a time bomb that is waiting to explode.”
Ohuabunwa told Buhari
to stop denying Ndigbo opportunities to serve in his administration under the
pretense of searching for saints, contending that Ndigbo parades an army of
people with unquestionable character.
He asked Buhari to go
outside the APC camp and choose other competent hands with proven integrity
from the zone, carrying Ndigbo along.
“But since the man said
he is looking for people with impeccable character, lets assume he hasn’t found
any among South East APC members. Let him come to me and I would donate a man
of integrity to him.
