Senator Orji Kalu, has vowed to support Bola Tinubu, his party’s presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, just like he did for Senate President Ahmad Lawan.
Mr Kalu, who was the director general for the Ahmad Lawan for President Campaign, expressed satisfaction with the conduct and outcome of the APC primary election.
The former Abia governor said that he had anticipated that the party’s presidential candidate would emerge through consensus but reckoned “The party would have been factionalised without the primary.”
“Now, the way I fought for Lawan is the same way I will fight for Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he said.
“The next is to work for the APC and the APC candidate; we have no alternative. I am a party man and do not shy away from issues,” he said.
Mr Kalu expressed the optimism that the South-East would vote for APC in 2023.
“I will always take my stand on any issue. I accepted that Bola Tinubu won, and the whole party agreed.
”There is no doubt about his victory, and when there is no doubt about his victory, we just have to go to the field to work for our party’s victory,” Mr Kalu said.
