Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, has revealed that President Bola Tinubu has assigned him the responsibility of coordinating All Progressives Congress (APC) activities in Abia State.
Kalu made the disclosure on Monday in a post shared via his Facebook page, where he expressed appreciation to the President for what he described as confidence in his leadership.
The former Abia State governor said he is committed to working with stakeholders in the state to strengthen the party and position it for success in the 2027 general elections.
He wrote:
“I sincerely thank His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for the confidence reposed in me and the marching order to coordinate activities in Abia State in respect of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“As the most senior Governor in the state, I am committed to working closely with all stakeholders, in line with the President’s directive, to ensure that the APC in Abia produces candidates who are widely acceptable, united in purpose, and well-positioned to secure victory in the state for the President’s re-election, while advancing the best interests of Abia State and Nigeria at large.”
In related political developments, Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has criticised ongoing attempts by opposition figures to form a coalition ahead of the 2027 elections, describing the initiative as poorly conceived.
Speaking in an interview with Vanguard, Keyamo questioned the feasibility of such a merger, warning that it could create complications for aspirants seeking various elective positions.
