    The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has expressed strong disapproval over the exclusion of the South-East and South-South regions in recent appointments to the boards of federal parastatals by the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

    In a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Dr Ezechi Chukwu, the group denounced the nominations as a violation of national equality and the Federal Character Principle established in Nigeria’s constitution.

    “Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide is deeply concerned by the glaring omission of qualified individuals from the South-East and South-South in the reconstitution of the boards and leadership of critical national agencies, including the Bank of Industry,” the statement read.

    “These institutions are strategic drivers of Nigeria’s economic reforms and national development. Their leadership should reflect the spirit of inclusivity and unity in service of the nation,” it added.

    Ohanaeze urged Tinubu to take immediate steps to address the imbalance, describing the situation as still redeemable.

    “We urge Mr President to redress this imbalance in the interest of inclusivity, fairness, and justice,” the group stated.

    In another development, Ohanaeze Ndigbo commended President Tinubu and the National Assembly for the approval of the South East Investment Company (SEIC)—a financial and developmental arm of the newly constituted South East Development Commission (SEDC).

    Speaking on behalf of the Apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, President General Senator Azuta Mbata praised the initiative as a major step toward economic revitalisation in the region.

    “This is a commendable move. The SEIC holds vast potential for mobilising private capital, enhancing regional competitiveness, and stimulating industrial growth in the South-East,” Senator Mbata stated.

    He also emphasised the need for professionalism, openness, and responsibility in the operation of the investment business, urging stakeholders to support its success.

    Ohanaeze reaffirmed its commitment to constructive dialogue and partnership with the federal government while also advocating for equitable representation and sustainable development throughout Nigeria.
