Ouk was very rich before he become a Gov. in facts , Some of the SE Govs from 1999 to date were very very rich before they became Govs, when I mean rich , business and. Work not politics made them rich.. eg OUk, PO, Rochas , Soludo etc.


He was a good Governor too but didn’t major on Infrastructure. Orji Kalu paid 13th month atimes as Christmas bonus.

Otimpku.

Kalu wey dey give 10k to women in Abia civil service for August Meeting wrapper every August. As in 10k between 1999-2007.

He did not owe workers

Man was a good governor for "Nigerian standards"

Because of blind loyalty. All the fundamentals.coming from Abia since the past 20 years was completely negative. Stop the igbo loyalty. Kalu is the worst governor this nation has ever produced

Re: Kalu: I Left $4 Billion Balance Sheet In My Companies Before Joining Politics by AmadorSays: 12:50pm On Jan 30
I don't think this is entirely true, personally I feel he has always been a politician even before becoming a governor. A true business man would have developed Abia state more than it is knowing well that a developed society would bring more revenue both to you and the people under you. Many so called businessmen we have today are politicians disguised as business men, they lobby and play the politics to start and favor their business, and when they've made the money, they look for an office to protect the wealth. At the end of the day you're more of a politician than business man.

Still can't understand how he failed

He was young, well exposed, very highly connected in the international world and very very rich.. He opened his house... Arguably biggest private residence in Nigeria a night Before he became governor

Still can't get how he messed it up

It seems there are forces that stops them from doing the right thing once they enter office.

People that didn't know him still believe today that his wealth is Abia State money . His shortcomings as a Governor was that he used the opportunity to expand his business and was almost absent leaving State affairs to his mother and siblings who milked the State dry .

He was very wealthy b4 becoming a governor, but he couldn't use his wealth and affluence to position Abia for greatness. Rather he drained the State Treasury to the ground.
