Orji Kalu On Cancelled Germany Trip: "I Am Not A Coward" by agentakins: 6:18pm On Aug 19, 2019
Former Governor of Abia state and Chief Whip of the Senate, Orji Kalu has debunked the insinuation that he cancelled his medical trip to Germany because he was afraid of being given the Ekweremadu treatment.

Recall that former Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu was at the weekend attacked in Nuremberg, Germany by irate IPOB members when he attended the annual New Yam Festival organized by the Igbo community in Germany.

In the video clips, the angry mob was seen preventing the lawmaker from escaping, but he was later whisked away in a Mercedes-Benz car, even as the mob continued to beat him.

Speaking on Monday, Kalu said he did not suspend his planned medical check-up to Germany because of what happened to Sen. Ike Ekweremadu.

“I have been in my country home interacting with the people and settling disputes. The news that I suspended by planned medical check-up in Germany was not true.

“I was invited by Igbo group in Spain to attend their function, I could not go because of the interaction with my constituents.’’

Kalu had described the action of the IPOB members as uncivilised, unacceptable and barbaric, urging Igbo people to respect their leaders at all levels.

He noted that the only way the South-East zone can be prosperous was by embracing dialogue, peace and unity.

Kalu also urged the Embassy of Nigeria in Germany, the German Government and appropriate authorities to bring the perpetrators of the ugly incident to book.

He said: “After watching a viral video of the physical attack on former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweramadu, I was not only disappointed but irritated and disturbed with the action of some members of IPOB.

“The assault on the senator is a slap on Igbo leaders regardless of age, party affiliation and religion. The perpetrators of the uncivilised act must face the wrath of the law.

“Sen. Ekweramadu is not only one of the Igbo leaders, but also a prominent Nigerian and as such should be accorded due respect by all and sundry at home and abroad.

“For the South-East to move forward, the people of the zone must embrace dialogue as a way of resolving pertinent issues and eschew violence.”

History still compounds harsh legacies of these self-centered hypocrites. Igbos are not like the northern dominated unproductive, unprivileged mere street mediocres that Can easily be deceived by political war lords. No body in Igbo land cares about these low headed crap. When multi hundreds of Igbo youths and children and whilst pregnant women were maimed, slain killed slaughtered and butchered in cold blooded by buhari APC bold serial killers. Then non of these prominent irritants ever said a word. Can I confirm to you all here that kalu and cohorts has no place in Igbo land even if they contest for presidential position in buari APC northern dominated Hausa oligarchy no sane Igbo extraction will vote for them apart from less privileged street orphans wallowing in mediocrity that could be induced with some little fragments of coins. These political idiots has no plan for common man in the society but can become reactionary tissues when it comes to their follow heartless thieves. I pray that some other heartless terrorists should come against these terrible Ganga of irritants called politicians history will remain harsh against you all until pay for our common wealths which you have shared within your families and households

No it's not, but violence will not help your cause either. Believe me because I'm an advocate of eradicating the present political class and we've fought battles online and on ground. Violence will worsen matters. Confront them but don't touch them.
