Buhari maintained that he is not worried about the agitation and said the people claiming to be marginalised have not defined how they are being marginalised

''Why does it have to worry me, when I have militants, Boko Haram and other. They said they are being marginalsed but they haven't defined the extent of their marginalisation. Who marginalised them? How? Where? Do you know?,'' he queried.

Buhari further said he is obliged by the constitution to chose ministers from each state.

''Who is the minister of state for petroleum, is he not Igbo? Who is the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria? Is he not Igbo? Who is minister of labour, science and technology? What do the Igbos want?,'' he questioned.

The president revealed that Nnamdi Kanu has both a Nigerian and a British passport and did not use either in entering the country."There's a treasonable charge against Kanu and I hope the court will listen to the case against him. Do you know Kanu brought in sophisticated weapon into the country?.''The president called on the media to do more investigative journalism so as to unravel the truth.
