Dr Josef Onoh, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and spokesman for the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has counseled Igbo elites against open confrontation with the incoming Federal Government, so the region does not stay in the cooler as it was in the outgoing government.
Onoh stated this in a statement on Monday in reaction to a statement credited to the former Governor of Enugu State, Dr. Okwesilieze Nwodo, who lamented that the incoming administration of President-elect Tinubu was already giving the South-East ‘a slice of soaked bread’ going by the composition of the Presidential Transition Committee.
According to Onoh, the Igbo people should not be hasty in making inflammatory speeches, adding that it was too early in the day for the South-East to pose as opposition once again to the federal government.
