Lawyers in Abia State have shown support for Dr. Emeka Kalu, who has expressed interest in contesting for a seat in the Senate.
In a statement on Sunday, a lawyer, Emelike Okorie, said that not less than 10 legal practitioners from the state who are vast in election matters and are consultants on political matters in the country, have been inaugurated for advisory roles in Kalu’s campaign.
He said Kalu’s emergence is deliberate and would alter the political status quo in the state. “The race for 2027 elections has commenced unofficially. In the Nigeria political atmosphere, time starts running and strategic assemblage of men and women to place the card for the shining lights of our son, Chief Emeka Kalu begins.
“Abia North legal minds rose, cutting across the entire local government areas of Abia State and gave the nod for the next senator from Abia North to emerge from Amogwu, Bende and to push for the election of chief Emeka Kalu as the next senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“The good people of Bende, this is the most-timely timed season to give in all within our might to fight this noble project.
“A Tsunami is in the offing that will alter the political status quo marked by deliberate, sustained, strategic plan to elect our son into the National Assembly,” he said.
