Buhari Appoints Igbo Man As New NNPC GMD, Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu From Delta State
August 4, 2015 – Buhari Appoints Igbo Man As New NNPC GMD Group Managing Director, Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu From Delta State
President Buhari may not be anti Igbo as most Ndigbo see him in this country.
Recall that a pan-Igbo group called Buhari anti-igbo last week for not giving appointments to Igbo people.
To prove them wrong, President Muhammadu Buhari has just appointed an Ndigbo by the name of Dr Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu as the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
He was the ex-VC & General counsel to Exxon Mobil Africa.
According to Buhari’s to publicist, Femi Adesina, Dr Ibe hails from Onicha Ugbo area of Delta State.
He graduated with First Class law degree from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. He did his Masters and Doctorate Degrees in Law at Harvard Law School.
Congrats to him.

Sai Buhari is working, God is working, God is using Buhari to savage Nigeria for good and better. The dead PDP is using Igbo people against the new ruling party, What a shame ? See this Igbo man, He is highly educated, i salute you my brother. God would see you through in this your new endeavour.

The choice of sterling personality of Emmamuel Ibe Kachikwu’s calibre, coming from the stock of people who continually complain of marginalisation, goes to reinforce Igbos cannot be completely ignored in the development of Nigeria, no matter where the directions of their votes in the last elections. Igbos have the portentials and ability to contribute their quota to the advancement of technology in Nigeria if their intellectual achievements are proparly harness and geared towards making Nigeria a great nation. The negative perceptions that certain recalcitrant Igbos are pro-Biafra agenda notwithstanding, the good news is that the likes of brain and brawn calibre of Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu gives cause for celebrations, that Nigeria cannot do without the Igbos afterall. For Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu to have been handed the responsibility of steering the affares of one of Nigeria’s most important revenue earner organisation, the NNPC; demonstrates his honesty and integrity is beyond just the ordinary in this era when Nigeria is chasing all looted monies in the just ended tenure of Ebele Jonathan, everywhere around the world. Congrats Dr. Ibe Kachikwu.

Nice one from mr. President! God almighty will surely give u more wisdom to move this nation to a greater height in Jesus name. Most igbos never want the success of this administration. I don’t really know what they want! They are beginning to irritate me with their hatred and sentiments. God has chosen general muhammadu Buhari as the president of this great nation nigeria and there is nothing anybody can do about that! So far his performance has been excellent! What he need at this point in time is our prayers and support, instead of criticising him.

@O’Nels or what ever you call yourself let me inform you Biafrans will never accept PMB government because of attrocity and genocide of innocent children he massacred during the civil way , also let me inform you if you are not aware of treaty they forced Biafran to signed in 1914 amalgamation of Nigeria has expired so Nigerian is corrently an illegal country. disintergration is the only way as water and oil can never mix together…….. this un holly marriage be best option is a divorce …

Congrats to Dr. Kachukwu. May God be with you and strengthen you sir. All these guys talking about biafra should know that Nigeria is a country instituted by God and no tribe can disjoint. I am from delta igbo and lives in imo state but I detest the idea of biafra cos they are too voilent and do things for selfish desires. Am sorry, but its the truth.

No state discriminate pass delta not even Yoruba or Hausa, so stop calling him igbo and about d appointment buhari is leading well so far and also am not worried about any appointment or who is given to, rather I just want peace to reign in our country and people should stop discriminate.
