Ex-governor, Attah wants Babachir replaced with Ogbonnaya Onu

Obong Victor Attah, Former governor of Akwa Ibom State, has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to appoint the Minister of Science and Technology, Dr Ogbonnaya Onu, as Secretary to the Government of the Federation.Recall SGF, Babachir Lawal  is currently on a 14-day suspension pending the report of a three-man administrative panel of inquiry president Buhari set up to investigate him over allegations of abuse of office levelled against him by the Senate.Attah noted that the All Progressives Congress, APC, as an amalgam of different parties, has to look out for for the interests of its component units, adding that while the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, produced the president, the Action Congress of Nigeria ACN, the vice president, the new Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, the National Assembly leadership, only the All Nigeria Peoples Party, ANPP, has not been adequately represented.“The APC is made up of the defunct ACN, ANPP, CPC, and later the New PDP. The CPC produced the president, The APC Leader, Asiwaju Tinubu, nominated someone as the vice president, those from the PDP control the National Assembly and I had always thought that the ANPP should produce the SGF and that person is Ogbonnaya Onu, their leader who is a man of integrity and has a lot of experience as a former governor, party leader and a minister.“So, I was quite surprised that he did not get it in the first place, unless he says he does not want it, then they can nominate another person from the ANPP bloc, but still from the South East,” Attah said.
