The counsel for the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, has called on President Bola Tinubu to stop the monthly media chat of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.
Ejiofor described Wike’s media chat as an exercise that offers little substance and reeks of misplaced priorities.
Ejiofor said this this Tuesday as he expressed concern over the huge allocation of funds each month to finance Wike’s media appearances, despite the millions of Nigerians battling record inflation, stagnant wages, and deepening poverty.
Ejiofor says the cost of one media edition could fund emergency relief and shelter for thousands displaced by the recent floods in Niger State, and could refurbish primary schools, equip rural clinics, or sustain nutrition programs in IDP camps for several months.
He urged President Tinubu to call the FCT Minister to order, and redirect focus to service delivery.
