Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, representing Abia North, has issued a strong warning to members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to refrain from acting as arbiters in matters between him and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu.
In a video address, the former Abia State governor stressed that only he and Benjamin Kalu truly understand the origins and future of their relationship. He asserted that no third party should intervene or pass judgment on their affairs.
Kalu also emphasized the need for unity within the party, calling for a collective effort to strengthen cohesion. He stated, “Let today be a turning point for all of us; unity must prevail in the party. I do not want anyone to act as a judge between the Deputy Speaker and myself. We alone know how we started, and only the two of us know how we will end.”
Referencing a conversation with the president, Kalu revealed that he had spoken favorably about Benjamin Kalu when asked. He added that if Benjamin Kalu decides to run for governor, he will do so under his own name as a brother. “Let there be a transparent election; whoever wins, we will support. If you do not want our support, we will go to our houses and sit down,” he said.
