Orji Kalu

The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Okezie Kalu, and former Abia State governor, Senator Orji Kalu (Abia North), have said that President Bola Tinubu told them to take charge of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state. Both politicians recently released statements posted on their official Facebook handles.

According to Okezie, he is grateful to the president for the opportunity given to him, and believes the decision will further unite APC in Abia State.

Orji added that he’ll work closely with all stakeholders to ensure Tinubu’s order is a success.

His words, “Thank you, the President and Commander in chief of the Armed Forces, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for insisting that governors should handle the issues of the party in the states with APC Governors, while the highest ranking political office holders like the Deputy Speaker takes care of the affairs in Abia State.

Thanks for reemphasising this on Friday during the engagement.

You have always worked with this model all through the ward, local government and state congresses and it has brought us great success. It has united the party more than ever before and we are ready to win elections in Abia State for you and for every one who has an interest to contest under our party.

Thanks to the National Working Committee for the great job you are doing, we will continue to work with every stakeholder until victory is assured.

Abia APC has never been this united and forward looking thanks to your support. We will deliver Abia votes overwhelmingly.”

Orji Kalu added, “As the most senior Governor in the state, I am committed to working closely with all stakeholders, in line with the President’s directive.”

WOW.
