Atiku, Amaechi, Obi, El-Rufai are my friends but I dont understand their coalition – Orji Uzor Kalu
Senator Orji Uzor Kalu of Abia North has expressed confusion over the opposition coalition led by Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, Rotimi Amaechi, and Nasir El-Rufai.
Kalu, who referred to the four politicians as his friends and brothers, made it clear that he is not part of the alliance aimed at unseating President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Reacting to the coalition, Kalu pledged his support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Tinubu’s re-election bid, affirming his commitment to keeping the party in power.
He made the remarks during a visit to Governor Alex Otti in Umuahia, the Abia State capital.
Kalu said, “Atiku is a personal friend of mine, Amaechi is a personal friend of mine, Peter Obi is my friend, brother, and inlaw; El-Rufai is my personal friend and brother.
“So their coalition is what I don’t understand. What I understand is that APC is on course and I have many triggers to pull out for APC.
“Otti is my brother and he is doing well, I think from my village to this place is one hour. I’m not into coalition, APC is the largest party in Africa.”
