The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Air Peace Airlines, Allen Onyema, says it is wrong to say that President Muhammadu Buhari does not like the Igbos.
According to Onyema, who took to Twitter to defend his viewpoint, argued his airline had hugely benefited from the current administration.
He wrote;
“I thank God for our President, Muhammadu Buhari, it is very untrue that he does not like the Igbo.
Without me being a member of his party or any party, I am a beneficiary of his support for indigenous businesses.
“The Federal Government of Nigeria has given me destinations they have never given anybody, yet I am an Igbo man, from Anambra,” Onyema said on an interview with Anambra Broadcasting Service (ABS).
Furthermore, he stressed that people should not read negative meanings to the good works of the Buhari administration.
“I don’t know anybody, I don’t have any godfather, President Buhari through his minister, Hadi Sirika, has given me China, London, Portugal, the entire Europe, United States and India.
“He’s even given me Jedda, and I’m not a Muslim; the government has given me about twenty destinations to fly to.”
He added that;
“The President wants equal economic development everywhere.”
Also, he lauded the Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, for the massive cargo airport project going on at Umuleri.
