A classical photograph of prominent Nigerian leader , Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu and world recognised cleric,retired prelate of the Catholic church, Pope Benedict XVI has emerged online.

In the photos as shared by the former Abia Governor on his verified social media handle on Saturday 12th February 2022, captured the 2023 Presidential aspirant kissed the hand of the revered Catholic cleric in the tradition of Orthodox Christians to honor their spiritual father confessor and in veneration of the Body of Christ which the priest (pope) handles during the Divine Liturgy as he prepares Holy Communion.

The photo is reportedly to have been captured during The Forbes recognised business entrepreneur's visit to the Apostolic Palace official residence of the pope, located in Vatican City of Rome in Italy.

Captioning the iconic photograph he wrote "During my visit to Pope Benedict XVI in Vatican City in 2005 . He became Pope  in the 2005 papal conclave that followed the death of Pope John Paul II".

Following the statement was a picture of himself and the Pope Benedict XVI. 
Pope Benedict XVI, full names ;Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger is a retired prelate of the Catholic church who originated from Germany, he served as the head of the church and the sovereign of the Vatican city state from 2005 until his resignation in 2013. Benedict's election as pope occurred in the 2005 papal conclave that followed the death of Pope John Paul II.

According to findings, getting an audience with the Pope deemed the 6th most powerful in the world is not an easy task. However there are three options. The first option is to visit on a Sunday morning just before noon for a chance to see him for free. You can also get a papal audience ticket in St. Peter's Square/Nervi auditorium or a ticket to the Vatican Hall.

Within the last two weeks iconic file photos of Senator Orji Kalu and influential personalities from both the local and international spheres have continued to dominate the Internet.

Days ago, a file photo of Orji Kalu with late global iconic leader and former South African President, Nelson Mandela went viral on the Internet. This was also followed by another photo which captured the moment he Presented his book to the Ex President of the USA, Bill Clinton.

He wrote "Throwback pictures of Myself Presenting a copy of the Book "Orji Uzor Kalu, the master Strategist" to President Bill Clinton of United States of America in Washington DC."
Following this statement was a picture of himself and the Ex President of America, Bill Clinton.

Poverty risen to the highest level. Crimes has gone up. Lots of bad vices everyday. Buhari who isn’t fit to be collecting levies at tollgate is been made President by some greedy cabals.

Inflation at the highest rate

Commodities became so costly that the naira became worthless compared to the actual value of the particular commodity.

A bread that the monetary value should be estimated #250 is sold as costly as #500 or more just to meet up with the prices of the raw materials

Useless and stupid economic policies yet so daft and insensitive to the plights of the general public

A Known sadist
