President Muhammadu Buhari will not overlook the southeast for appointments capital projects even though he got the least votes from there in the last election, he is out to woo the zone, a source has said.
According to the source, Buhari wants to carry all parts of the country along in his administration and would execute projects in the southeast that will surprise his ardent critics.
“The president is out to show Ndigbo that he does not hate them. Remember, he ran with late Dr Chuba Okadigbo and Chief Edwin Ume-Ezeoke for the presidency in 2003 and 2007. Now, he has agreed to be part of the burial of Owelle Chukwuma Azikiwe, the first son of Nigeria’s first President, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe.
“Besides, he has directed a committee, which has former Senator Chris Ngige and some Igbo leaders as members to assess the Zik’s mausoleum and speed up the reconstruction of the historic site,” he said.
A delegation from the Azikiwe family met with Buhari recently to brief him on their preparedness for the Chukwuma Azikiwe’s burial.
