Senator representing Abia North and one of the leaders of APC in Abia state, Sen. Orji Uzor Kalu has urged the state governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu to use the opportunity of the upcoming local government election to decide what he will be remembered for.

Sen. Kalu said there are many ways one can write his name in gold in democratic governance, urging the governor to allow a free and fair process.

Speaking at the expanded caucus meeting, the Senate Chief Whip who said his party the APC is not afraid of intimidation by the security agencies insisted that Abia State Independent Electoral Commission (ABSIEC) must conduct election that reflects the general will of Abians.

"Time is gone when they used to go from house to house to harass our members. And I am sure nobody can do it in Abia State of today. If they try it, we march them back, if you harass us, we harass you back.

"Because there is no need to police innocent citizens in their villages. Or call them out and arrest them on the eve of election. We are not going to take it" he said.

While urging the people of Abia to identify all electoral officers in the various local governments, Sen. Kalu warned them against absconding while the election is still ongoing only for the electoral body to announce winners fraudulently.

The former Abia governor urged ABSIEC to take a cue from INEC with the conduct of Edo and Ondo governorship elections.

He further reminded the governor that time is coming when he will exit office as governor, advising him to supervise an electoral process that will add value to the country's democracy.

The lawmaker insisted that the result sheets must be made available at the local government headquarters and not in anybody's home or office.

He said anything short of that is unacceptable by the APC.

thief giving his follow thief an advice.

I expected Senator Kalu to share his experience in conducting local government elections while he was the Governor of the failed state of ABIA.........A state of spiritual oath taking before assumption of office, voodoo governance and endemic corruption.

Why is the judiciary refusing to speedily rearraign this well known crook so that he return to jail immediately? This is what gave him the impetus to be talking any how.
