The Senator representing Abia North Senatorial District, Orji Uzor Kalu says that the six months he spent in Keju Correctional Centre, Abuja has rather spurred his desire to work for the people of Abia North in particular and Abia State in general.

Sen. Kalu stated this on his first visit to his country home after his jail experience, reiterating that rather than diminish his quest to serve his people, his incarceration serves as a source of motivation to take his constituency to greater heights.

Recall that Kalu was jailed in December 2019 by Justice Mohammed Idris on a corruption charge.

This was, however, upturned by the Supreme Court’s verdict, in May, 2020, on the grounds that the Judge had no jurisdiction to pass the said judgment.

Fielding questions from reporters at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport, Owerri, Monday, Kalu who was received by a mammoth crowd on his way to his Igbere country home, in Bende LGA of Abia State, pointed out that dividends of democracy to the people of the Abia North zone remained unaltered in spite of his confinement.

At the airport, the former governor maintained that though he was away in confinement, the zeal to work for the people remained sacrosanct, pointing out that all the projects he had attracted from the federal government were being executed without interruption.

“Development projects will continue to be executed as long as I serve the people in whatever capacity. I’ll continue to offer my services to the people. I’m a homeboy who loves my people and my people love me”, he boasted.
