EKO HOT BLOG reports that Speaking on Saturday during an empowerment program organized by Chris Nkwonta, the lawmaker representing Ukwa East/Ukwa West federal constituency, Kalu emphasized that the SEDC was a significant step towards addressing the infrastructural challenges in the South East region.

Kalu expressed deep gratitude for Tinubu’s efforts, stating, “The president has tried for Ndigbo. He is still trying for Ndigbo. He is the only man that remembered Ndigbo after 54 years that a promise of reconstruction, reconciliation, and rehabilitation was made to Ndigbo.”

At the event, held in Ndoki, Ukwa East Local Government Area of Abia State, over 3,000 individuals reportedly defected from various political parties to join the All Progressives Congress (APC). This mass defection was seen as a boost for the APC in the region.

In a related development, the Chief Imam of Lekki Central Mosque, Ridhwan Jamiu, commended President Tinubu for his performance since assuming office.

The Chief Imam prayed for the President’s success in steering Nigeria toward peace, security, and prosperity, adding that Tinubu has so far lived up to the expectations of those who supported his presidential bid during the 2023 elections.
