Eluemuno, said yesterday in an interview with Anambra
Broadcasting Service in Awka that he's not surprised at the
way the appointments of President Buhari is going, saying it
shows the president's deep rooted hatred for the Igbos..
“I said it during the campaigns that General Buhari
does not like Igbo people and it is happening now
with all the appointments he has so far made since
he came into office on May 29. He appointed five
service chiefs and there is no Igbo man, even though
Igbo have qualified people to occupy the positions.
His party has completed the selection of principal
officers in the national assembly and despite the fact
that the speaker, Mr. Yakubu Dogara made case to
apply the federal character in allocating the offices,
the president jettisoned it through his intervention
and left Igbo APC lawmakers out.
“He also exhibited his vindictiveness during his
recent visit to the United States of America, USA,
when he travelled with only governors from his party,
leaving out governors from the opposition parties.
“He was also quoted as saying that he would favour
those who voted for him and our position is that
there is no way the president should expect all
Nigerians to vote for him in the last presidential
election.That statement contradicted Buhari’s earlier
stand that he belonged to everybody and belonged to
nobody.”
Eluemuno also said that Buhari had no reason to
discriminate against the Igbo because Igbonation played
prominent roles in the development of Nigeria and should
therefore not be discriminated against in the scheme of
things.
According to him, apart from the Secretary to the
Government of Federation, SGF, the remaining appointments
are ministers and board members, which constitutionally
must go to all the 36 states of the federation, adding that
appointing an Igbo minister would not therefore be a favour
to them.
On the president’s threat to probe only the Jonathan
administration, Eluemuno said it would amount to witch hunt
if he limited it to the immediate past administration, advising
that the probe should start from the PDP civilian
administration that began 16 years ago with Chief Olusegun
Obasanjo, who governed for eight years.

While speaking to African leaders at the African Union
Headquarters in Ethiopia today July 28th, President Obama asked African leaders
to leave office whenever their tenure comes to an end and shaded the heck out
of Mugabe and Burundi president. What he said below...
"I am in my second term. Its been an extraordinary
privilege for me to serve as President of the United States. I love my work but
under our constitution I cannot run again. I actually think I am a pretty good
president. I think if I ran I could win. But I can't. So there is a lot that I
will like to do to keep America moving but the law is the law and no one person
is above the law. Not even the president. And I will be honest with you.
I am looking forward to life after being president. I wouldn't have such a big security detail all the time. It means I can go take a walk. I can spend time with my family. I can find other ways to serve. I can visit Africa more often. The funny thing is I don't understand why people want to stay so long especially when they have got a lot of money. When a leader tries to change the rules in the middle of the game just to stay in office, it risks instability and strife as we have seen in Burundi. Sometimes you hear a leader say well I am the only person who can hold this nation together. If that's true, then that leader has failed to build their nation. You look at Nelson Mandela. Madiba like George Washington forged a lasting legacy not only because of what they did in office but because they were wiling to leave office, transfer power peacefully. Just as the African Union have condemned coups and illegitimate transfers of power,the AU and other strong voices can also help the people of Africa ensure their leaders abide by term limits under their constitution. Nobody should be president for life" he said
