Orji Uzor Kalu Wants To Be The Senate President

Orji Uzor Kalu begs the APC to provide the South-East "something very reasonable" other than deputy speaker.

Orji Uzor Kalu, the Senate Chief Whip, made this request in a statement on Thursday.

He said, "Vote is not a measurement. We had a hurricane in our zone. We need one another and not the level of votes cast. Those who did not vote for the party today can vote for the party tomorrow if they are properly aligned. After all, we have made progress.

Before, we used to be one or two senators but it is no longer so. This thing did not only happen in the South-East. Many people from areas where the presidential candidate came from voted along certain lines. I appeal to you people that you must cede something very reasonable to the South-East.
