Group Calls On Kalu To Resign Position

The Global Centre for Conscious Living Against Corruption, has urged the Senate Chief Whip, Orji Kalu, to resign his position from the upper chamber of the National Assembly.

The group’s leader, Dr Nwambu Gabriel, made this known at a press conference in Abuja to mark the International Anti-Corruption Day.

The Group said that it was morally wrong for the senator who was prosecuted and handed a 12-year jail term recently to continue to represent Abia North Senatorial District from prison.

He said: “We wish to advise the convicted Chief Whip of the Senate to honourably resign his seat as Senator representing Abia North Senatorial District.

“It is morally wrong for him as a convict to still represent a people from jail.

“We agree that he has the right to appeal the ruling of the lower court, but we make bold to say here that morally, it is wrong for him to remain the representative of Abia North.

“He cannot effectively represent Nigerians from prison. We need not to tell him that if he indeed loves the people of Abia North, he should throw in the towel.”
