The Senate President, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, yesterday disclosed that the South East geopolitical zone just like any other zone in the country will be taken care of by the President Bola Tinubu-led administration.

He said the federal government has great confidence in the leadership of the South East geopolitical zone, adding that the zone has nothing to worry about.

Akpabio, represented by his deputy, Senator Jibrin Barau, urged the people of the region to be calm, stressing that the region would be duly taken care of under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.

Akpabio made this known in an interview with journalists at St Michael’s Catholic Parish Mbeke Ishieke in Ebonyi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State during a Thanksgiving/Empowerment programme organised by the Deputy Chief Whip, Sen. Onyekachi Nwebonyi.

“You can see the confidence the president has in the leadership of the South East, so feel at home. The South East is going to be taken care of by Mr President including North Central, South South, North East, and Nigeria at large.

“And it is going to be done in a manner that no one will ever be left behind in the distribution of the nation’s wealth,” he said.

At the thanksgiving, Sen. Nwebonyi handed over 78 bungalows to the less privileged in his senatorial district.

Nwebonyi who is representing Ebonyi North senatorial zone also gave out cars to four APC local government chairmen in his constituency including the clergy in charge of St Michael’s Catholic Parish Mbeke Ishieke.
