A mild drama ensued at the Sam Mbakwe Airport, Owerri as the Chief Whip of the Senate, Orji Uzor Kalu was held hostage by supporters who insisted he must declare his readiness to run for President in 2023 before leaving the airport.

The Chief Whip of the Senate and former Governor of Abia State, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu made his first entrance to the South-East, almost two months after his release from the Kuje custodial centre.


Senator Orji Uzor Kalu arrived the Domestic Wing of the Sam Mbakwe Airport, Owerri at exactly, 1:32 pm via a private jet and was making his way out of the arrival when he was accosted by thousands of supporters. The visibly elated crowd made it nearly impossible for the former Governor to access his vehicle as they insisted he must declare his interest before they allow him leave.


The Senator, however waved at his supporters and asked them to in his words “Only thank God for me” before he was whisked into a waiting vehicle.

The office of the Chief Whip of the Senate had earlier issued a directive appealing to well-wishers and supporters to respect the COVID-19 regulations and avoid gatherings to celebrate his homecoming, a directive which they clearly were not ready to adhere to.

The drama continued as his convoy arrived Abia state as thousands of his supporters defied the rain to welcome him.

Shouts of “OUK our President” rent the air while his convoy made its way through the streets.

Meanwhile, All Progressives Congress (APC) Abia state chapter, in a statement signed by the publicity secretary Comrade Benedict Godson has welcomed the former Governor to the state.

The statement reads as follows “Today, our leader makes a triumphant entry into Abia, as a journey towards reclaiming our state begins In our part of the world. Today, after the much-failed efforts made to curse a man whom God has already blessed, that man is coming in to take his rightful place as our leader. He’s the APC leader in the South East of Nigeria, he’s Abia State political leader no matter the party you belong and he’s the man whom everybody gives the respect as Abia Original leader.

In Another statement released by the Movement for the Emancipation of Igbo People and signed by its National Coordinator Kelechi Okoye, the organization declared that “For those who sent Senator Orji Uzor Kalu to jail because of 2023, we shall use the same man to teach them a lesson about the resilience of the Igbo man.

We shall make sure he declares and runs for President come 2023 and we shall put them to eternal shame. In the coming months the whole nation will hear the voice of the Igbo people and it will be loud, clear and deafening”

The Senator is yet to make a statement to confirm or deny if he he will be joining the Presidential race in 2023, insisting he is still having a sober reflection on the events of the past months.

Bunch of Comedians

Nigeria best country in world for Corruption, praising looters and luv their oppressor......

Lols


Igbos.... LMAO.

Abia state was carved out of Imo state...let me stop here.

Who are the Igbos that dragged Kalu for Presidency? Change that headline quickly. Be careful Op!

Inasmuch as Kalu has the right to contest for Presidency, it's good we mention the name of the group singing his praises.

Looter has turn to Hero,come 2023

OUK peoples choice....

This country no fit better again... Poor people r d issues of this country....how can u be rooting for a corrupt person to come into power and steal more money.

I don't blame politicians they know wat the people want....give dem more bullshit that's what they deserve

you paid your own people to block your convoy and you're claiming drama. Drama indeed politicians are clowns

lol and a journalist just happened to be eating corn across the street to see it happen

The whole plot is to swindle him. They did the same to runaway commander, Ojukwu. Ojukwu even lost an election as the family head.
The case is still in court who fathered Bianca's children. FFK is the plantiff
Shameless and confused lots.

Igbos block convoy?
The entire South-East?
Sycophants are hailing him, so that he can drop some 'change'.

It really won't be easy at all for an Igbo man to become the president of Nigeria. If we must tell ourselves the truth, we are all gonna agree with me that the first thing that will come to a voter's thought is that if an Igbo man becomes the president, he's gonna make sure biafra comes into existence. To me and many people in Nigeria, even in 100years to come, an igbo man won't become the president of Nigeria. The damage has already been done.
Its just my thinking.

Ortom did exactly the same two years ago. One Pastor Dave handled the charade. He was rewarded with a position of SSA to the governor two months ago.

lol nor be only drama Na hotel de jordan

Hehehehe

You can tell it’s not a Igbo that made this report!

That albino hunchback porn star will not be happy with this news. Seeing Kalu rivals his popularity among the Igbos, he will soon start directing his attacks at him.

Pls I no fit laf. Too many foolish people from that region of Nigeria.

chai! See crowd

Superwave:

Shut up... Bigot soul

If the title was that "Igbos angry for Orji Uzo Kalu for having interest on 2023 presidency" all of you haters will happily troop out and start saying that Igbos enemies are Igbos or that Igbos hate themselves.


Now that Igbos are backing their brother you all are still lamenting..


Most of you guys from waste region are hate filled souls and sadist

You’re letting your bigotry, paranoia and intense dislike for Ndigbo get in the way of rational thought, if not you’d have realised it’s exactly this position of not supporting a Igbo President, even in the next hundred years, that will hasten the coming of Biafra! Not that i give a shi’t about presidency or no presidency.....just saying!

Given the divisive and anti-Igbo trajectory Nigeria is on, its breakup is just a matter of when not if!

Presidency of Nigeria, Presidency of Biafra or Presidency of the Zoo?

This people are confused.

For 2023 ....jagaban we know... others can go and eat amala and ewedu...

RichBoy247:

E pain am.

he is just a criminal like Tinubu...................
