2023: Orji Kalu Tells Buhari Type Of Successor He Should Pick

The Chief Whip of the 9th Senate, Orji Uzor Kalu has charged President Muhammadu Buhari to pick a presidential candidate under the All Progressives Congress that would protect his legacy.

The former governor of Abia State advised President Buhari to endorse a candidate that will fix Nigeria’s economy and take education seriously.

Kalu further stated that the presidential race is not about spending money, adding that Nigerians will collect the money and vote according to their conscience.

The lawmaker in a post on his Facebook page wrote, “the earliest Nigerians and presidential aspirants understand that no amount of money can buy the president of the country, the better for everyone.

“It is only cohesion and consensus among the regions that can produce a president. If you throw in money, the majority of the electorates will collect the money but still vote according to their conscience.

“If money can buy the office of the president of Nigeria, Late MKO Abiola could have bought it with extra change. If money can buy the president, former President Goodluck Jonathan could have bought the presidential seat in 2015.

“I urge President Muhammadu Buhari to consider giving Nigeria a man who can give the entire country a sense of belonging; fix our economy; secure all parts of the country; take education very serious and protect his legacy.”
