A former Governor of Abia State and the Chief Whip of the Senate in this current ninth assembly, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has formally declared his intention to contest for the Senate Presidency in the 10th National Assembly, saying that it is his turn to occupy that office.
This appears to be a rehash of the Emi l’okan statement, meaning, ‘It is my turn’, made by the president-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, when he was contesting for primaries under the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) in June 2022.
This was made known by Orji Kalu, who won his re-election to represent Abia North in the senate under the APC platform, during a chat with journalists on Tuesday, March 21, 2023, at the National Assembly.
