Orji Uzor Kalu, a senator representing Abia North, has revealed that he funded the formation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and later provided financial support to former President Olusegun Obasanjo after his release from prison. Kalu claimed that he financed the party's activities, including providing aircraft and honorariums to party members, despite the party turning against him after he invested his resources.
