Igbos Shouldn’t Complain Of Marginalization, They Did Not Support Buhari

Chris Ngige, Nigeria’s Minister of Labour and Productivity, has asked Igbos to stop complaining about marginalization by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

Ngige said that Igbos didn’t invest in Buhari’s election in 2015 and so have no reason to complain.

“I went to our Ohanaeze Ndi-Igbo in Enugu twice. They could not even reply to a letter written by Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, seeking for a meeting with them”, Ngige told THIS DAY. 

“They refused to listen to me, and to make matter worse, there was no voting in most of the areas in the South-east; they just allocated 5 per cent to APC.

“It was that bad, it is too late to cry when the head is off. Politics is business in a way, you invest in business and you reap profit.

“Yes, that is what it is. But all I want to tell you is that we played bad politics; we made a bad investment because they invested in the Jonathan presidency. They invested in Jonathan more than the South-south, where he hails from.

“I am not saying that is enough to marginalise them or not allow them come in but we are there. I will continue to speak for them and when there is anything to be distributed, we will make sure that the South-east gets its own portion. But they will not get excess portion.
