President Muhammadu Buhari has extolled the enterprising spirit of the Igbos, saying it’s unthinkable for him for any Igbo man not to consider himself part of the country.
According to the President, Igbos are in charge of the country’s economy, noting that Igbo men are found in every community in the country where they are in charge of the economic activities.
“There is no town you will visit in Nigeria without seeing the Igbos being in-charge of economic activities. The evidence is there for everyone to see, that Igbos are in charge of Nigeria’s economy.
“It is therefore unthinkable for me that any Igbo man would consider himself not to be a part of Nigeria” the President said in his verified Facebook account on Friday.
