NNEWI – As presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, stormed Onitsha, Anambra State on Thursday for campaign, Zeribe Ezeanuna, one-time House of Representatives candidate for Ogbaru Federal Constituency on the platform All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and Silas Ikeh, a community leader and Igbo activist, slammed President Muhammmed Buhari over his polices on economy, security and order of appointments.
The duo noted that most of Buhari’s polices are anti-people, just as they applauded the recent endorsement of Atiku and former Anambra governor, Peter Obi’s, candidacy as the preferred choice of the Apex body “Ohaneze Ndi Igbo. They noted that the pair, if elected, would solve the nation’s problems.
Speaking with newsmen in Ogidi, Idemili-North Local Government Area of the state on Wednesday, Ezeanuna noted that “President Buhari had shown enough incompetence and lack of sensitivity to the plight of suffering Nigerians. He should allow people who are competent to take over the nation’s leadership, he has failed. Nigerians are in serious pain and because he doesn’t know what is happening, whatever he does now generates tension, anxiety, among other ills.”
On his part, Ikeh stated that the president and his party, All Progressives Congress (APC) do not have any good programme for the Igbos and urged all Igbos in the APC to join the PDP.
While noting that the much talk about Igbo presidency in 2023, which APC is brandishing to the Igbos if they vote for President Buhari is a fluke, he stated that the only thing that will touch the problem of Igbos in Nigeria is restructuring of the country.
He, therefore, urged them to identify with Atiku, who has sworn to implement restructuring if elected.
