The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Benjamin Kalu, has called on the people of the South East to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) and move away from regional politics.
According to him, it was unwise for the South East to continue operating from a minority position when it should align with the majority party. During an interview on Flo 94.9 FM Umuahia, Kalu said that he took bullets for President Bola Tinubu in the South East before and during the presidential polls. He urged politicians from the South East who belong to other parties like PDP, APGA, and LP to join the APC, as he believed there was more room for them in the ruling party.
Because we are bringing the type of leadership that will recognise your stake,” Kalu said. 'It is better for you to be in a party that has control of the federal purse because that way, we can lobby better. When we go with the splinter group, our voices are low. 'We must leave regional politicking and go national politicking. If we do more for APC, APC will do more for Ndigbo,' the Deputy Speaker said.
