Shun planned nationwide protest, Kalu begs South East youths

This was just as the lawmaker stated that President Bola Tinubu’s assent to the South East Development Commission Bill on Tuesday, will aid infrastructural rebuilding in the region, following many years of neglect by successive administrations.

Kalu stated these in Abuja on Wednesday while addressing journalists on the signing of the SEDC into law by Tinubu.

He said, “To my fellow South-Easterners, I implore you not to join the planned anti-government protests. Instead, let us view the signing of the SEDC bill into law as a testament to the President Bola Tinubu administration’s resolve to heal the wounds of the past, bury the rumours of the marginalistion of the South-East geopolitical zone, and renew the hope of the nation towards equitable economic growth and socio-cultural renewal.

“I also implore Nigerians from all walks of life and the entirety of the country to not heed the calls for protest but instead continue to trust in the process. The reforms of the current administration will take time but will soon start to suffice, including a reversal of inflation and stabilisation of the economy.

“This will trigger multiplier effects in a massive employment boom as a result of industrialisation, and the outcomes of the work organisations like the SEDC will engineer.”
