Supporters of Kalu and Wabara were seen in jubilation mood as they vowed to ensure that the APC wins the next elections in the state.

Okey Sampson, Aba

It was jubilation in Abia North and Abia South senatorial districts, yesterday, when the names of former governor of the state, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, and that of Chief Marc Wabara, made the list of the National Independent Electoral Commission (INEC), of those cleared to contest the 2019 senatorial election in the state.

An aide to the former governor, Dr. Madukwe Ukaegbu had, in response to a rumour making the rounda about their candidacy, said “Kalu was returned unopposed in Abia North senatorial district; nobody contested it with him.

“So, it will be foolhardy for anybody to say that he was not cleared or not given the ticket by his party to contest the coming election. This is politics quite alright but, people must be very careful of how they go about spreading fake news.”

Regardless, when Daily Sun visited INEC offices in Abia North and Abia South, Kalu and Wabara’s names were on the lists of those cleared to contest for the senate seats.

At the offices visited, supporters of Kalu and Wabara were seen in jubilation mood as they relayed their discontent over the rumour and vowed to ensure that the All Progressives Congress (APC) wins the next elections in the state.

“Going through the INEC list, to see the names of Kalu and Wabara who were rumoured not to have been cleared by our party, has given us a huge sigh of relief because we have been in unhappy mood since the fake news broke out”, one of Kalu’s supporters, who declined to be named, said.

Speaking on the development, Wabara described those who were spreading the fake news as “mischief makers” who are afraid of their rising profile.

He promised to work closely with Kalu and other leaders of the party in the state, to ensure that APC wins Abia in 2019.

You can feel the sadness in the poster above Me.
Can't understand why Kalu is so much hated at his own domain.

Ouk is loved in his place because his good work speak volume for him.

Roads constructed by him is what abia state is still managing it remains today.

Have you being to Abia before

Which of the roads are you talking about I hope you know that Aba is also under Abia

Before you will start saying what you don't know or you are paid to say,

Abians are yet to be lucky with good leadership especially from Orji Uzor's generation of leadership!

And no serious government fighting corruption will let Orji loose not to talk of campaigning for any political office!

Orji Uzor Kalu is VERY VERY CORRUPT!

Infact like Tinubu like Orji Uzor Kalu!

If you know, you know!

Ticket does not guarantee success. Kalu will not get to the senate under APC short and simple.

Ojiofor:
Taaa, maybe he is loved in Igbere his village. OUK is the face of Abia state failure.

Thats why he will win hes the next senator rep abia north,mao is a goner

senatordave1:
Hes more loved than mao ohuabunwa

michae1004:
[s][/s]Wake up from your delusion. A rerun was conducted by inec two years ago and your apc chieftain was beaten to third place.
The thunder that will strike you if you share my post is on standby.

Ojiofor:
Mao is not popular like that but isn't disliked as OUK.
If you are from Bende North you understand what am talking about.

eduj:
biko mention one major road ouk did in aba or umuahia that's still motorable?

senatordave1:
The apc candidate was not popular and apc was relatively new there.ouk lost to pdp by the slimmest of margins with an unknown ppa.now that hes in apc,expect him to smash that useless mao ohua

michae1004:
The apc chieftain i was referring to is orji uzoh kalu if you know what i mean. If chief bourdex onuoha was fielded, he stands a better chance than orji uzoh. In case you don't know David ogba bourdex onuoha was the winner of the 2015 abia north senatorial election not mao ohabunwa.

senatordave1:
You lie sir.ouk is still the most popular politician in abia.he almost won mao with votes alone from the populous bende lga under a moribund ppa.now that hes in a stronger apc that is also controlling umunneochi north plus federal might,expect him to win plus buhari getting 40%
