Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu says he supported Femi Gbajabiamila, former House Majority Leader for the Reps Speakership position due to his “amazing” personality and wealth of experience in legislative business.

Ben Kalu is All Progressives Congress (APC) member representing Bende Federal Constituency of Abia State in the House of Representatives, and one of the staunch supporters of Gbajabiamila throughout his campaign for the Reps number one seat.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Igbere TV over the weekend in Abuja, Ben Kalu said the personality of the Lagos lawmaker motivated him to throw his weight behind his ambition for the Reps Speakership, despite having other candidates for the post from his party.

He said he saw competence and wealth of experience in the four-term lawmaker (now serving his fifth term), which made him not to relent in his support for him till the inauguration morning when he cast his vote.

According to him, Femi Gbajabiamila has what it takes to effectively lead the 9th House of Representatives, having been in the Parliament for 17 years.

Ben Kalu who hinted that Tuesday (inauguration day) remains one of his most memorable day in the lower legislative chamber, said he feels fulfilled having seen Gbajabiamila emerged Speaker.

Nice

Hon. Ben Kalu just earned my respect. He did not say RT. Hon Gbajabiamila is Afonja so we must work against him. Thank you sir for supporting Buhari/Osinbajo's candidate. All Nigerians have confidence in Buhari and Osinbajo.

Is that all you got from his message?
