Ahead of the upcoming launch of the presidential campaign for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abia State, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu, has called on campaign council members to strive for a victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and all APC candidates in the state.
Kalu addressed the council, which included the party’s governorship candidate, Chief Eric Opah, and other key figures during a meeting at his home in Bende. He emphasized the collective responsibility of the party members to ensure success in the election. Kalu stated, “We are working hard for ourselves. APC is a moving train. We are progressing.”
Kalu, who also serves as the Director-General of the APC Presidential Campaign (South) 11, highlighted the importance of voting for Tinubu as a means to secure a better future for Igbo land and representation in his administration. He noted that a vote for the President is synonymous with a vote for local development.
Following the campaign flag-off, scheduled for Monday, Kalu indicated that the campaign would actively engage with communities throughout the 17 local government areas, delivering the “Renewed Hope” message through rallies. “Everyone should get ready,” he told the council members.
To facilitate the campaign, Kalu directed members to identify suitable buildings in their local government areas to serve as campaign headquarters, emphasizing the necessity of local presence in the campaign efforts.
