       President Buhari promised to extend projects to south east
       - President Muhammadu Buhari addressed the issue of secession
       and noted that it will be a difficult thing
       - The president promised that the south east will benefit from
       his new projects
       - He called on traditional rulers to urge their people to give
       him support President Muhammadu Buhari has put an end to the
       issue of Biafra insisting that the country will not break-up.
       Buhari’s administration has witnessed resurgence in the
       agitation for an independent Biafra state but the president has
       responded to the call saying the country was better an one.
       In a statement by Garba Shehu who is the senior special
       assistant to the president on media and publicity, Buhari was
       quoted as saying focus should be on development.
       The president made this comment on Thursday, December 1 while at
       a meeting with the Council of South-East Traditional Rulers at
       the State House.
       He said: “The question of having another country out of Nigeria
       is going to be very difficult. From 1914, we have more than 200
       cultures living with one another.
       God had endowed this country with natural resources and talented
       people.
       We should concentrate on these and be very productive.”
       President Buhari promised that the south- east will also benefit
       from the new railway architecture being put in place by his
       administration.
       On the issue of having more Igbos in the key positions in the
       country, Buhari said he was “very conscious of the sensitivities
       of the South East” which was why four of the five key cabinets
       were occupied from people from the region.
       The president urged the Igbo elders to urge the people in the
       region to give his administration a chance and also applauded
       the good work of the ministers from the region in the federal
       government, saying that they are doing very well for the
       country.
       President Buhari assured that the issue of cattle rustling and
       kidnapping would be his next focus as “we have managed to calm
       down the North-East.”
       On the issue of corruption, President Buhari noted that the
       judiciary needs cleansing as some trial dated back to when Chief
       Olusegun Obasanjo was president.
       “We are asking the judiciary to clean itself. Nigerians are
       tired of waiting.
       They want some actions.” His Royal Majesty, Eze (Dr) Eberechi N.
       Dick (JP) who is the chairman of the South East Council of
       Traditional Rulers made requests for roads other projects, He
       also assured the president of their continued support for his
       administration.
