Our Igbo elite must hear and accept this truth in their interest. As of today, Abuja, the centre of Nigeria’s misshapened federal system, is not favourable to the Igbo. It matters not how many big Igbo political shots are in the ruling party. In the eyes of the Abuja Establishment the Igbo should be distrusted or at best, given arm’s length accommodation. The February presidential election and its fallout starkly brought up the antipathy of Abuja against the Igbo which simmered from the Buhari era.
