Kalu Urges Nation’s Elite To Leave Good Legacies For Posterity

  • Kalu, good legacies for posterity
  • The Chief Whip of the Senate, Sen. Orji Kalu, has advised the nation’s elite to do things for which they will be remembered by future generations.

Kalu gave the advice during the 46th anniversary celebration in honour of his friend and business associate, Tein Jack-Rich, which took place in his Camp Neya’s country home in Igbere, Bende Local Government Area of Abia on Thursday.

“Life is not only about what you achieved for yourself but the number of people you helped to move up the ladder of life,” he said.

Kalu, who was Abia governor (1999-2007), admonished political office holders to ensure workers welfare and regular payment of salaries.

“You must show love to people. You should be remembered for paying teachers’ and civil servants’ salaries.

“You should be remembered for giving free education and healthcare as well as touching other people’s lives positively,” he said.

He paid special tribute to the celebrant for his numerous philantropic and humanitarian projects meant to transform the lives of the under-privileged in society.

The Guest Preacher, Zilly Aggrey, an apostle, thanked Jack-Rich for using his anniversary to honour clergymen “at a time society holds them with contempt”.

Aggrey therefore prayed God to honour him with more years and successes in his endeavours.
