    She has every lawful right to hate and express her hatred base on reason- even base on envy and jealousy, it wont change anything as far as Igbos and Republic Of Biafra are concerned. Economic power controls political power- Biafrans controls the economy of this territory and the economy will remain bad until Republic Of Biafra is in full operation. God Is With Us!!!

    I am not here to defend the Minister of Finance(Mrs Kemi Adeosun) on this issue but my concern is the tone of the message, which to me, is a manipulated message from the enemies of the Minister. No right thinking Minister of the Federal Government of Nigeria would come out to make such statement at this juncture. The twitter should be disregarded and ignored by Nigerians, more especially the Igbos. I wonder why certain evil people believe in destroying rather than appreciate what is good for the progress of the country. From my own personal evaluation of the Minister, she has been doing a great job along with the Central Bank Governor by reducing the level of recession and inflation in the economy. The Minister should ignore the evil twitter and engage herself in a much fruitful and progressive activities in the country. Progressive people appreciate your endeavours and please keep the upward trends for the economic development of Nigeria.

    I didn’t read the twitter contents ascribed to the Minister of Finance. The Minister shouldn’t bother herself about the fake message.
    Igbos in their desperation want to drag every unwilling part of the country into their Republic of Biafra. So, such fake stories against the Minister are being circulated, the motive is very clear.
