US-Based Igbo Groups Criticize Umahi's Claim on Tinubu's Impact on Igbo People

US-based Igbo groups openly dismiss Senator David Umahi's claim that President Bola Tinubu has not addressed the marginalization of the Igbo people. They argue that the South East region continues to face neglect and lack of development under the current federal government.

Umahi's statement is challenged by the groups, emphasizing that Tinubu's tenure did not bring any significant changes to the region. The groups accuse Umahi of downplaying the deep-rooted grievances in the South East and assert that the region remains marginalized in terms of infrastructure and federal attention.

The statement also questions why critical infrastructure like the Umuahia-Enugu railway remains inactive despite the region's need for functional transportation links.
