Joe Igbokwe, the Special Adviser to Lagos State Governor on Drainages, has reacted to the alleged exclusion of Igbos in the transition committee of the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
The chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, expressed disbelief that Tinubu excluded Igbos from his transition committee.
Tinubu had forwarded a 13-man list in addition to the earlier transition committee lists sent to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha.
It was observed that the Southeast was excluded from the list submitted to Mustapha.
Reacting, Igbokwe questioned the authenticity of the report claiming Igbos were excluded from the committee.
In a Facebook post, Igbokwe wrote: “Please let someone help me to investigate this: can it be true that Asiwaju Transition Committee was formed without any single Igbo on the list? I’d not want to believe it is true. May it not be true.”
