The Igbo socio-political group, Ohaneze Ndigbo, has threatened to drag the Federal Government to court over its discriminatory posture towards the South East in terms of federal appointments.
President General of the group, Chief Nnia Nwodo made the announcement while noting that the South East has not been well represented in President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Nwodo, also applauded the bail granted the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
According to Nwodo, “We have appointed a committee of Senior Advocates of Nigeria from Ohanaeze states to take the Federal Government to court over the discriminatory treatment that is given to the people of the South East and the South South.
“Ohanaeze on our own are doing the best to carry on. We particularly feel happy (that) following our persistent demands, the government has responded now by granting bail to Nnamdi Kanu.”
