EKO HOT BLOG reports that Dr Josef Onoh, a Spokesman of Bola Tinubu in the Southeast has asked Igbo youths to ignore the alleged exclusion of the region from the presidential transition committee and embrace the President-elect for their prosperity.
He was reacting to the National Vice President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Damian Okeke-Ogene who had in an interview slammed the President-elect for non-inclusion of any person from the South East in the 13-Man Transition committee.
The Ohanaeze also said that the body has was yet to recorgnise Tinubu as President-elect.
Onoh in his reaction said that even though Ohanaeze Ndigbo as a body Igbo youths should disassociate themselves from the stereotyped individuals masquerading as Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
“They are always quick to turn around to blame the youths for restiveness while silent on the foundation they laid that gave rise to such.
“Irresponsible children are not born rather they are product of bad parenting, hence the elders of Ohanaeze have failed in their parental responsibilities.
“It’s not about Labour Party, PDP, APC or our president-elect as a person, rather it’s about their personal interests not being captured in the constituted inauguration committee.”
“I want to tell the Igbo youths that they should not be deceived by the sins of old merchants.
“They should not allow sentiments to polarize our ability to be part of Nigeria.
“It’s high time the youths in the south east begin to see the bigger picture and wake up to follow their own part rather than investing energy insulting anyone with divergent views,” Onoh urged.
