You're not in tune with reality on ground, IPOB lawyer tells Rep Kalu

Titus Maduako Eleweke

A human rights lawyer and counsel to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor, has criticized Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu, the Deputy Speaker of the Nigerian House of Representatives, over his comment about the All Progressives Congress (APC) taking over Abia State in 2027.

Ejiofor described Kalu's comment as a mere daydream.
In a statement issued on Monday, Ejiofor said that Kalu's remarks in a trending video clearly show that he is disconnected from the people of Abia State,his home state and the reality on the ground.

In the video, Hon. Benjamin Kalu stated that he cannot be the sixth citizen of the country while the Labour Party (LP) governs his state.
He asserted that this would be the last time an LP governor would lead Abia State.
"This is the last time an LP governor will govern Abia. I say this without missing words; the next governor of Abia State must be APC. I will never be the number six citizen of the country while another party governs my state. By 2027, an APC governor will be in office. I have told the governor in person and publicly; we are friends. How it will happen, I don’t know, but I am confident because we are working hard in Abia State. I am confident because my government is working hard to bring development to Abia State; the president is also working hard and will be retained. The president who allows dividends of democracy in Abia State will be retained. We are not ungrateful people in Abia State. APC will not help the state to be strong, and LP will take the credit" he stated.

Reacting, Ejiofor said the trending video highlights the extent of Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu's desperation. He stated that Kalu's comments show he is completely disconnected from the realities in his home state.
"I can assure you that he will struggle to retain his mandate come 2027, which is the obvious consequence of the present macabre dance. Abians, who are currently enjoying the unprecedented dividends of good leadership, will definitely make their voices heard come 2027, provided their votes count again. By that time, the Deputy Speaker will realize he has been daydreaming. He needs to wake up from his slumber and prepare for the challenges ahead! Ndi No 6 citizens on paper; Akuko uwa! Abians deserve leaders who understand their struggles and are truly connected to the pulse of the people," Ejiofor said.

Very careless statement made by a Rep member in a democratic country this man doesn't believe in democracy and peoples choices.
