The attention of the APC in Abia State has been drawn to a misleading, malicious, and deceptive propaganda being circulated across various media platforms by Governor Alex Otti’s media team, falsely claiming that the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu, PhD, has endorsed Governor Alex Otti for a second term in office.
Ordinarily, Abians are already aware that the Otti administration is built on propaganda, media manipulation, and misinformation. However, for the benefit of unsuspecting members of the public who may be misled by these desperate falsehoods, we wish to categorically state that Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu remains a loyal, committed, and dedicated party man, as well as the undisputed leader of the APC in Abia State.
Is it not embarrassing that a government that prides itself on illusory self-praise is now desperately shopping for endorsements?
Let it be made very clear that at no time, either publicly or privately, has Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu endorsed Governor Alex Otti for a second term.
On the contrary, the Deputy Speaker has remained resolute and fully committed to the mission of ensuring that the All Progressives Congress wins all elective positions in Abia State and takes over Government House, Umuahia, come May 29, 2027.
His determination to ensure that the Labour Party administration in Abia State is voted out remains strong, consistent, and unwavering, especially in view of what many Abians consider the mismanagement of the state across critical sectors of governance.
We urge Abians to remain steadfast, united, and committed in their support for the APC as the party continues in their quest to offer credible alternative and a better future for the people of Abia State.
Signed:
Uche Aguoru
Publicity Secretary
APC Abia State
