According to him, “I saw a man, called Olusegun Obasanjo attacking Mr. President. Obasanjo was a President who brought corruption in Nigeria.
“Obasanjo
is a man, who told everybody that he never wanted third term, but, he
wanted third term. My problem with him was his third term agenda, my
problem with him was that he (Obasanjo) called me and former Speaker,
Ghali Umar N’Abba that we should change the electoral bill.
“I
signalled N’Abba in his room and I said, N’Abba, we cannot do this.
Obasanjo turned himself to be a dictator. How can you compare Obasanjo
and Buhari together. Is there any comparison? No. Mr. President had no
comparison.
“Buhari want the judiciary to be truly
independent. The judges in Abia have told me that they are in the
process of receiving their salaries directly from the federal
government.
“You have seen our roads, since I left as Abia
governor, look at our roads, we have never had any new road. When they
go to Abuja, they will tell Mr. President all kinds of lies, that Abia
is not APC.
“February 16 presidential election is around the
corner. The popularity of the party (APC) will be tested in this soil
(Abia). Abians are ready. We are going to give him 70 per cent votes
from this Abia State, to the glory of God”.
Kalu, however,
canvassed total support for the APC gubernatorial candidate in Abia,
Uchechukwu Ogah, in the forthcoming governorship election in the state.
He
said, “Uche Ogah had been tried and tested. He is coming from the
private sector the way I came. I have confidence that he will deliver
dividends of democracy to the Abia people if elected as governor”.
