Chief Nnia Nwodo, former Ohanaeze president has sarcastically stung President Buhari with a ‘thank you’ message for snubbing the Igbo bloc in appointing new service chiefs.
President Buhari after many months of public pressure sacked Service Chiefs and immediately replaced them with new ones.
Appointed are Major-General Leo Irabor, Chief of Defence Staff; Major-General Ibrahim Attahiru, Chief of Army Staff; Rear Admiral AZ Gambo, Chief of Naval Staff; and Air-Vice Marshal Isiaka Oladayo Amao, Chief of Air Staff.
There was no appointee from the five eastern states.
According to Vanguard, Nwodo, in a terse reaction to the announcement, said: “Gen Buhari, thanks for making us in Igboland feel, once more, that we are not fit to head any of the Security services.”
