Abia North Belongs to the People, Not Political Dynasty – Emeka Kalu Tells Orji Uzor Kalu Over Boastful Rhetoric

Abia North Belongs to the People, Not Political Dynasty – Emeka Kalu Tells Orji Uzor Kalu Over Boastful Rhetoric

I want to address the recent statement made by Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, in which he claimed that the Abia North Senate seat belongs to him until he has completed his term.

This reaction is a clear sign of fear. E.C.K. is committed to bringing accountability, as evidenced by his over 30 years…
