Ohanaeze youths urge Buhari to pick SGF from South-East

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to pick the next Secretary to the Government of the Federation from the South-East to correct the perceived marginalisation of the Igbo.

The Ndigbo youth group also endorsed the emergence of a Senate President from the North-East, as proposed by the leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress.

President-General of the group, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, spoke in a statement on Friday to Punch.

Besides, the group faulted the statement credited to the National President of the Arewa Youths Consultative Forum, Yerima Shettima, that the North would present a better presidential candidate in 2023. The group said such statement showed that Shettima was playing out the script of the Northern Elders Forum.
