How Tinubu Can Stop Me From Becoming Senate President - Orji Kalu

The former Senate Chief Whip, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the calibre of ministerial nominees sent to the Senate.

In a video post via his official Facebook page on Friday, the former Governor of Abia State said Tinubu has shown a deep understanding of the intricacies and challenges of the nation’s polity with the ministerial list.

The Abia Senator said the president has also exhibited his insightful comprehension of the Nigerian socio-political landscape which was made evident in the recently released ministerial list.

Senator Kalu also opined that with the ministerial list, the president is setting an agenda, showing that he is ready to run again come 2027.

He said: “For me, the President has demonstrated the capacity of understanding the diversity and geographical spread of Nigeria.

“I know many people will be complaining that some zones get more, and some did not get more, yes, it is in order, the constitution provides that every state must have one but I appeal that he should give south east one more to be able to have the sixth one that they used to have.

“To be honest with you, the ministerial list have shown that the president will understand the fundamental problems of Nigerians. Tinubu has shown an understanding of the rudiments of political processes.”
