Abia Ex- Governors, Orji Uzor And TA Orji Clash At Ikwuano by Ivegotsolutions(m): 9:59pm On Jun 30, 2017
_...Abia stopped working after I left as governor- Kalu_

_...I ended idol worship you introduced in Abia politics - Orji replies_

Two former governors of Abia State, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu and Chief TA Orji, clashed at Oboro during a burial ceremony in Ikwuano LGA attended by both men.

The clash which happened at the Ntalakwu Secondary School Oboro venue of the burial of former Secretary to the Government, Dr Elekwachi Nwogbo, was sparked off by Dr Orji Uzor Kalu who attended the event with his brother, Mascot Uzor Kalu and bus loads of his supporters.

Invited to make a speech, Orji Uzor Kalu who recently joined APC and is facing a N2.7b fraud case at the Federal High Court, used the opportunity to praise the departed man and added not so veiled snide remarks against his successor, Chief T A Orji.

According to him, while he (Uzor Kalu) was governor, the late Dr Nwogbo helped him to ensure that workers and pensioners were taken care of instead of suffering with no hope. He also claimed that Abia State stopped working after he left the government and since then no other Governor has been able to do as well as he did.

When he was invited to speak, immediate past Governor of Abia State and Senator representing Abia central senatorial zone, Senator T A Orji, praised the work ethics of the departed former SSG who worked with him while he was serving as Chief of Staff in the government led by Orji Uzor Kalu.

Senator Orji who attended the event with his wife subsequently launched into little veiled counter attacks against his former boss. According to Senator Orji, "if there is nothing else I achieved as Governor of Abia State I can at least beat my chest and say I ended idol worship in this state. On my watch, Commissioners and appointees didn't have to go to Okija or any other shrine to pledge allegiance to me and my mother or wife. Even the inherited debts and outstanding salaries/pensions were largely settled and I left the state as one of the least indebted in the country while adding many legacy projects that Abia people are enjoying to date".

He went further: "it is on record that I am the only elected former Governor of this state that our people massively elected to represent them at the senate whereas others have tried many times and were rejected by our people."

Both political gladiators received loud applauses from their supporters at the event which featured The Who is who in Abia politics from 1999 to date.

Two criminals but TA Orji (Thief After Orji) is worse. It pains me terribly that this man is still walking free in this country. Only those who resided in Abia State during these men's tenures as governors of Abia State can tell you how evil these men were. What we lived through!
I am a Christian and I believe in the Bible. But even if I wasn't a Christian I am sure I still would have believed in hell fire. How else would some very terrible human beings be punished? After committing so much atrocities they escape the law, the masses are unable to punish them. They still live among us and use every opportunity to rub it on our faces that we are weak and can't punish them for their evils. I believe that the All Seeing & All Knowing will punish them in hell even if they continue to escape man's retribution. As one that lived through this 2 animals reign in Abia State, I see them as pure evil, unadulterated evil. If you doubt me ask anybody in Aba
