Make amends with Buhari so he can do more for south-east – Orji Uzor Kalu tells Igbos

Former Abia state governor, Orji Uzor Kalu has asked the Igbos to make amends with President Muhammadu Buhari in order to attract more developmental projects to the south-east.

Kalu said supporting Buhari will bring more federal projects to the region and that Abia north senatorial district, his zone, is the only zone in the south-east and south-south that gave Buhari 68 percent votes in 2019 elections, and because of that Buhari has ‘shown a lot of love to us’

“The relationship with Abia north as a constituency is very cordial and the president has shown a lot of love to us and has remembered us with what we voted for, so we are excited, he said

“Abia north is the senatorial district that gave the president the highest votes both in the south-south and south-east, we are number one and nobody is challenging us.

“I encourage the Igbos to work with President Buhari to find a way to make amends and remove sentiments and work with the president so that in the remaining two years he can do more things for us before he leaves office.
