The sudden outburst of the Former Governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu has torn apart the Ohanaeze Ndi-Igbo, Ohaneze Youth Council and the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB).

This came on Tuesday, November 1 as the former Abia State governor , Orji Kalu’s asserted that the Igbo people are better traders than politicians.

“The Igbo have no discipline in terms of politics. They are very good traders; they’re good in anything they do, but they don’t understand politics,” Kalu was quoted to have said.

The groups, which spoke in separate interviews in Enugu, differed in their reactions to Kalu’s statement.

Taking the first shot, the Ohanaeze Youth Council, the youth wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, asked the former governor to immediately apologise to the Igbo people and also retract his statement.

Isiguzoro said, “Orji Kalu should immediately apologise to Ndigbo for insulting the great Igbo nation.

Truth is bitter

Even DR Nnamdi Azikiwe was not in good terms with Phuket. The ex Governor is right.

Kalu is right.
He knows what he is saying.
But the truth is he (kalu) is one of those that introduced the traders‘ mentality in lgbo politics.

When people sponsor candidates who have no vision just because their own personal gain. That‘s trader‘s mentality.

Another thing is when a man presents or discusses a problem without providing any idea on solution. That man is counted as “a problem himself.“

Kalu is problem to Ndi Igbo just like Rochas Okorocha
