The President should reverse it to assuage the feelings of Ndigbo
FormerVice President of Nigeria in the Second Republic, Dr. Alex Ekwueme has said that the plan to bring Boko Haram detainees to Aguata Prisons in Ekwulobia, Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State, was hatched during the former President Jonathans administration, but was resisted and protested against by the people which made the past administration to drop the idea.
Dr Ekwueme
Speaking with newsmen at Aguluzigbo, Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State during the end of tenure Thanksgiving Ceremony of Chief Victor Umeh as APGA Chairman, Chief Ekwueme said,  I am aware that the plan of bringing Boko Haram detainees to Aguata prisons in Ekwulobia came up a while ago and there was reasonable protest to the then President Jonathan against it and he dropped the plan.
I was out of the country when I heard that Boko Haram detainees were brought to Aguata Prisons in Ekwulobia, Anambra State. I started wondering how the idea of bringing them to the South East and my local government area came up again after the people thought the matter has been rested.
I am sure the new President must have seen the records and proposal and decided to  implement it, but since there was initial protest against the relocation of the detainees to the South East, Im sure President Buhari will do something to assuage the feelings of the people of the South East, he said.
On the alleged delay in appointing ministers, Chief Ekwueme said he cannot start passing judgment now on the President because every leader has his leadership style, everybody will not approach that exalted office with the same style. You have to watch and assess each person based on his style. The important thing is that we get the right result.
Another important thing is that we have peace, prosperity and unity, and better quality of life as Nigeria attains her God given-position as a great nation and leader in the comity of nations.
So, I wish the President well in running the affairs of Nigeria. I cannot start assessing his performance now, it is too early, he said.
