Sit-at-home: Listen to the people, stop fighting them – Ex International boxer urges Buhari, Southeast leaders
Ex International Boxer and Ambassador for sports in boxing, Mazi Ikechukwu Okoronkwo has lamented bitterly on the Federal Government, southeast leaders’ carefree attitude towards the body language (sit-at-home) of the masses in the southeast.
Mazi Okoronkwo who expressed this bitterness while speaking to the press in his residence in Enugu on monday said;
“Believe me this guys (our south east political office holders) did not understand what is on ground now. What we are seeing at grassroot is far from the understanding of many of Igbo politicians”
He continued “like I had already suggested to President Buhari through this medium to respect Igbo’s public opinion through the body language of Sit at Home and ask his attorney general to drop the case against Nnamdi Kanu and look into the complain of the south east public with a view to providing practical solution, because almost all our political office holders have soil their hands with one corrupt practice or the other. Our Government institutions are practicing nepotism and most of the roads linking Communities to Urban areas are not done Accordingly in some state”
Selfishness is the order of the day by the leaders, he said. The public have lost Confidence in their current political leaders.
Making a suggestion, Mazi Okoronkwo said “I think the good option is for our politicians to repent and allow positive things to work properly so that the public will enjoy the full dividends of Democracy”.
The Ambassador concluded by saying “I was expecting our Senators to adjust and advise the president to listen to the public rather than fighting the public. Because Leaders are for the people and not the people for the Leaders alone”.
