Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Privatization, clarified his support for President Bola Tinubu, emphasizing that it has no connection to his past corruption case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Responding to Dr. Reuben Abati, former presidential spokesperson and TV anchor, Kalu rejected claims that his loyalty to Tinubu is linked to the dismissal of his case.
In a social media post, Kalu expressed frustration, stating that his case with the EFCC was resolved before Tinubu assumed office, following 12 years of consistent court appearances and a trial with 19 witnesses. He further shared his experiences, saying that his prison sentence was transformative, and highlighted that he remains loyal to his party and president, not out of fear or personal gain but as part of his values and principles.
