Senator Nwebonyi, who is the Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriation and Water Resources said this while speaking at a news conference in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital on Monday.
Nwebonyi therefore advised the people of Southeast region to learn to play politics that would favour the region. The News Agency of Nigeria quoted Nwebonyi as saying, “In the ministerial list, some geopolitical zones got nine slots; some got eight slots; others got seven slots, but the Southeast got five slots only.
“When the Southeast agitated for more ministerial slots, it was reminded that it voted for Labour Party. “Last general elections, the Southeast voted for Labour Party. The presidential candidate of the party, Mr Peter Obi is a good man but the Southeast alone cannot make itself president of Nigeria.“This is why we must begin to play politics that will favour the Southeast at the national level because the zone has paid its dues and should not lose out in the scheme of things.’’SaharaReporters.
