Notwithstanding the fact that the region failed to vote for
him in the just concluded March 28 Presidential poll, a pro-democracy group,
the Igbo Conversational Group (ICG), has urged the President-elect, Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari, to fulfill promises he made to the Igbo people during his
campaign.
The call is contained in a statement issued on Friday by the
President of the group, Chief Ikedi Ohakim.
The statement quoted Ohakim as demanding for the completion
of ongoing developmental projects and establishment of new ones in the South
East zone.
According to him, there is need to ensure the immediate
take-off of the Aba Integrated Power Project to boost economic activities in
the region.
