BREAKING!!! Kalu Departs Abuja, Arrives Germany For Medical Attention by Igboblog: 10:32am On Dec 15, 2018
The former governor of Abia state and APC Senatorial candidate for Abia North, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu this morning arrived Frankfurt Airport and headed to Wiesebaden Hospital for appointment with his doctors.

Igbere TV recalls that Kalu, on November 28, in a letter of appreciation to Nigerians for their solidarity during his ill health, indicted that he will return to Germany on 10th of December and return again on January 22 for further medical checkups.

The December appointment was however rescheduled by Kalu’s doctor, Prof. Dr. med. Kleinschmidt to 15th, 17th and 18th December due to his unavoidable absence.
Igbere TV learnt that the Doctor, who is also the family physician of the Saudi royal family, traveled to Saudi Arabia to attend to the family.
Our hospital source also informed us that Kalu will have another follow up on January 20, 21 and 24 after which the hospital will decide if to discharge him fully.
In unusual display of patriotism and respect for the judiciary, Kalu had returned to Nigeria on November 30 against the advice of his Doctors, who insisted Kalu remained in Germany as an inpatient for close monitoring till end of January. But due to cost considerations, the extremely cold of the winter and other factors, Kalu decided to be coming in from Abuja as an outpatient, a source revealed.

One of Kalu’s aides also hinted us that his principal is likely to return to Nigeria on Dec 22 and will head to his country home, Igbere to celebrate the xmas. Kalu is known to always celebrate the Yuletide with close family members and his community in Igbere.
Like was observed during his November 30 homecoming, it is expected that Kalu will be accompanied by medical staff who will keep close eye on him while in Igbere. A Doctor and nurse was assigned to travel with Kalu to Nigeria on November 30 and left with him back to Germany last night.

Meanwhile, since the news of Kalu’s surgery broke, there has been overwhelming outpouring of love and solidarity by Nigerians and the people of Abia North in particular, who have repeatedly assured Kalu of their resolve to vote for him in 2019 for Senate.

Many of the people interviewed by our correspondents urged Kalu to concentrate on his health as they will vote for him whether he campaigned or not.

A Youth leader in Arochukwu LGA, Onyebuchi Udensi said “our people are tired of people coming to share N500 or N1000 during election and nobody will see them again till four years. We need quality representation, we need a senator who can influence the Federal Government to fix our roads, tackle erosion, provide assistance to our farmers, build schools and provide meaningful empowerment to our youths, not fry pan empowerment and Orji Kalu is the only credible candidate who can deliver. He has done it before and I know he will do it again”

On her part, a woman leader in Abiriba, Madam Ogbeyealu Okorie said: “When Kalu was governor, civil servants were paid on time, Pensioners were happy, parents were happy because of Kalu’s free education program, free health care, even till today, OUK foundation is giving out free interest loan to our people, giving scholarship to students and many more. Campaign or no campaign, the women will vote for him massively because he loves for us and we love him too.”

Kalu who was spotted at Frankfurt Airport this morning was accompanied by two security personnel. Our source said the Germany authorities where asked by one of the American countries to ensure Kalu’s Security during his stay in the country. The Security personnel were also spotted through out Kalu’s stay in the hospital in November.

All efforts to reach the ex governor on phone proved abortive. However, our correspondent reached out to his close associate who confirmed the trip, assuring Nigerians that ex Governor Orji Kalu will be back in Nigeria in time to celebrate Christmas with his family and supporters.

According to the associate, “This shows that against the propaganda of the opponents and other political parties, Governor Orji Kalu is a free man who would sacrifice personal comfort, even risking his health, to obey the order of the courts in Nigeria. Most people in his status would stay 6 months or more because the doctor said so, until they are completely healed overseas before returning home to answer the laws of the land. Governor Orji Kalu has shown that he is a great statesman who has high respect for the rule of law having asked most of his supporters to stop joining issues with the decision of Justice Idris.”
