Former Abia State Governor, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has stated that the Igbo people have faced unfair treatment in Nigeria since the end of the civil war. Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Wednesday, Kalu emphasized that Igbos continue to experience marginalization and called for equal treatment of all ethnic groups.
Kalu argued that ongoing discrimination against Igbos hinders the country’s development. He also shared how his children noticed negative stereotypes about Igbos when they returned to Nigeria, adding that such comments discourage people.
He concluded by stressing that Igbos have not been forgiven for their role in the civil war, urging the nation to move past tribal and ethnic divisions for progress.
