Quite early in his administration, President Muhammadu Buhari had in an interview mouthed off that there is no way it would be expected that he would give the same type of attention to those who gave him 97% of their votes, and those who only contributed about 5%.Many people thought of it as a gaffe, but, he has been living up to his words.

The South Eastern part of Nigeria, voted massively for Buhari’s opponent in the last election, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, and for that, they were marked by the government as the “enemies”

An examination of some of the actions taken by the Buhari-led Federal Government reveals well worked out efforts at denying the South East of what is being given to other parts of the country. Below, we highlight some of them;

1. Killing of innocent citizens by the military: No doubt, the South East is the home of the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) agitators. Reports, even authenticated by Amnesty International reveal that on several occasions when IPOB members have gathered to peacefully mark an occasion, Buhari’s military had recklessly opened fire on them, and slaughtered hundreds of unarmed and innocent citizens. The South East is not the only place where demonstrations hold, but anytime anybody from that area engages in any form of demonstration, they are shot at, and mostly killed.

2. Economic and Dvelopmental Plans: The Buhari administration has found a way to always ensure that when developmental and economic support plans are made, people of the South East are conveniently omitted.

For instance, when the government submitted a plan in support of its USD29.96billion foreign loan request, it was evident that none of the projects for which the loan was being asked for, was to be executed in the South East.

Again, the monthly stipend of N5,000 which the administration promised would be paid to poor and vulnerable Nigerians has commenced. Sadly, none of the states from the South East was included!

Recently, as the government kick-started its economic empowerment and poverty alleviation programme, it has stated that 23,400 beneficiaries have been chosen from 13 states. Of the 13 states, none is from the South East!

It seems then that for the Buhari administration, South Easterners do not...
