The Special Adviser to the President said despite Buhari’s “strong commitment towards transforming every part of the country”, some “people with primordial antipathy” could not see anything good in the President’s regime.

“It is disingenuous for anyone to claim that President Buhari does not like any part of the country, most especially the South East,” he said.

He added that “69 different projects (were) being undertaken by the Federal Government in South East alone, all amounting to about N680 billion.

“Of course, top on the list is the Second River Niger Bridge, which was built with mouth in the 16 years of the People’s Democratic Party in power,” he concluded.
