President Muhammadu Buhari has been taken to the cleaners by the Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide over the appointment of Usman Alkali Baba as the Acting Inspector-General of Police (IGP).

Ohanaeze National Publicity Secretary, Chief Alex Ogbonnia, said;

“It is unjust and unfair to sideline the South-East in the security architecture of the country. Injustice promotes insecurity; it promotes all forms of crisis and problems. With injustice, there is no peace anywhere.”

“What is happening in South-East today in form of agitations is as a result of injustice. So, we the elders are put in a great dilemma because the younger generation is attacking us and we have been telling them to hold on believing that the president would have a change of mind.”

“We thought that the president would be concerned about the level of injustice, agitations and crisis we have in the South-East and would try to ameliorate these things but unfortunately, he is not thinking towards that direction. It is most unfortunate and Ohanaeze will come up with a stronger statement.”
