Foremost youth leaders from the Southeast have hailed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for appointing Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu as a Minister in his cabinet.
They said that Tinubu has appointed the Igbos to strategic positions in his administration, adding that his gesture was reflective of his posture as a democrat and detribalised leader.
Mr. Uche Idechukuka and Emeka Obileom, of the Southern Youths Development Forum (SYDF) inc and Good Governance Group(GGG) in a joint statement at the weekend said that the current administration has given the Igbos a sense of belonging.
The statement reads in parts: By this appointment, President Bola Tinubu has again demonstrated that he truly loves and appreciate Ndigbo.
Ambassador Bianca is a true daughter of Igbo and as a wife of the late Igbo icon, every Igbo strongly believes that the late Ikemba of Nnewi was a leader of not only the Igbos but a Pan-Nigerian and one of Africas best.
We have continuously praised Mr President for several appointments of Igbos in strategic positions in his government and we are working with many Igbo groups around the world to reciprocate the actions of Mr President.
We are mobilizing major Southeast blocs to support Mr Presidents Renewed Hope Agenda.
We are also working round the clock to build a national peace movement which will be launched in December across the country.
We are ready to work with the administration, especially for the overall interest of all our people.
