The idea of the North East Commission was never that of President Muhammadu Buhari, Chief Edwin Clark has said.
Reacting to the comment attributed to President Buhari that the North East commission was his compensation to the region’s massive electoral support in the just concluded February 2019 presidential election.But the elder statesman said that the National conference and the 8th National Assembly should take the credit for the establishment of the North East Commission.
He, therefore, noted that it was wrong for the president to tie development programme to political patronage.
This is better ignored to avoid giving people like this the attention they seek. Besides, the capacity to feel shame has been numbed with years of free range looting of the national till. May they recede into oblivion veeeeery soon
