Align With Tinubu, Shake Hands Across Nigeria to Secure Tomorrow, Deputy Speaker Kalu Urges Ndi Igbo

Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu, PhD, CFR has called on the Igbo people of the South East region to embrace strategic political alliance

Deputy Speaker Benjamin Okezie Kalu has urged the Igbo people in the South East region to form regional political alliances and shake hands across the Niger to secure their future. Speaking at the inauguration of Abia State All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council in Umuahia, Kalu emphasized that the South East has been successful in business and rebuilding the region post-civil war without government intervention due to their strategic thinking.

He urged Ndi Igbo to apply the same strategy to politics and no longer rely on sentiment. Kalu identified President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the ideal investment platform for Igbo votes, praising his non-tribal approach to leadership. He rejected the idea of a four-year agreement for an Igbo presidency, insisting that Ndi Igbo deserve eight years of representation.

Kalu assured the Igbo people that their time is coming and urged them to take their votes seriously as a rewarding investment.
