Group Blasts Buhari For Exclusion Of South East From $22.7 Billion Federal Loan

The Exclusion Of Southeast In $22.7 Billion Federal Loan As Further Evidence Of President Buhari’s Inglorious Apartheid Regime
We the Igbo Ekunie Initiative, IEI,
comprising individuals in Nigeria and the Diaspora; have noted the
criminal/Apartheid level exclusion of the Southeast in projects to be
executed from the $22.7 billion federal loan. Having carefully reviewed
all the allocated projects by administrative zones, we state as follows:
That the scale and scope of this
unprecedented exclusion in a democracy and administration that promised
progressive change surpass the globally condemned South African
Apartheid regime.
That in a continuing pattern, 5 years
into his regime, Buhari has continued to pursue Apartheid policies
against the Southeast in violation of his oath of office and the utmost
need to unify the country.
That aided and abetted by a ruinous
bigoted cabal, Buhari has ignored his historic responsibility to do
justice to all but has instead pursued a narrow fascist policy that has
actively pursued discrimination, marginalisation, injustice and other
forms of hate against sections of the country in ways that gravely
undermines the unity of an already fragile nation.
That, the brazen and blatant exclusion
of the Southeast whose citizens will contribute more than a fair share
in the repayment of the loan is tantamount to the balkanization of the
federal republic of Nigeria and or a declaration of war by other means.
That Nigeria’s diversity is her greatest
asset but the Buhari administration since inception has continued to
mismanage and attack that diversity in ways that portend grave danger
for the unity of the nation and that has indeed fuelled increasing
separatist agitations.
We hereby call on President Buhari to
urgently review the projects in view of including the Southeast in
critical infrastructure to be constructed from the $22.7 billion federal
loan.
Anything to the contrary would leave the
people of the Southeast to conclude they are no longer part of the
federation, in which case president Buhari’s Apartheid regime would be
held responsible for having initiated the balkanization of Nigeria.
