Why I joined APC – Orji Uzor Kalu

Orji Uzor Kalu

Former Abia State Governor, Orji Uzor Kalu, who recently joined the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has revealed why he made the move.

He made this known in a Facebook post on Saturday. Read below:

As an Igbo man who have seen it all, trained in business by the Hausa Fulani and started business in the South West.

I sincerely believe it is better for the Igbos to sit where other Nigerians are sitting. I recall that on complaining of how the bad roads in the South East has been a great source of worry to me and our people, President Muhammadu Buhari personally promised me that all the contractors in the South East will return to sites before the end of November.

Today, contractors are fully back to the many abandoned Federal roads in Eastern Nigeria. These are part of the reasons for joining the party. I joined the APC because President Buhari has fulfilled the promise he made to me and we are hopeful he will do more.

Recall that Kalu was recently re-arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on an amended 34-count charge for over a N3.2bn fraud
