A 2-term FMR House of Reps member & PDP Governorship aspirant in Anambra State, Rt. Hon. Chuma Nzeribe has reacted to the harsh words of President Muhammadu Buhari on his official Twitter handle where he reminded the people of the harrowing and horrible events of the Civil War in 1967-1970.
Speaking to newsmen Honorable Chuma Nzeribe said, “it’s wrong for Mr. President to use that particular ugly incident that cast a cloak of darkness in the history of Nigeria to attempt to address issues of insecurity beleaguering his administration referencing the South-East and the wanton destruction of infrastructure.
He went on further to say that even though the president while addressing the issues tried to explain that the people agitating for a separation may have been going about it the wrong way, it was UNPRESIDENTIAL for him to have further tried to use the events of the Civil War to buttress his point.
The president ought to know that language is key when communicating to a people he governs, he said.
The former lawmaker also used the opportunity to appeal for calm in the South-East and advised various Governors to sit up and nip the insecurity issues affecting their various states in the bud to lives & properties which is the first obligation of any government.
