The Senior Special Assistant to Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, on Public Communication, Dodoh Okafor, has declared that the Senator representing Abia North at the National Assembly, Orji Uzor Kalu, will be disappointed in the 2027 election.
Naijaonpoint reports that Okafor made the remarks while reacting to Kalu’s low score of Governor Otti’s performance in Abia State.
The Governor’s aide claimed that Senator Kalu is banking on external power to facilitate his electoral victory in 2027.
According to Okafor, the dependence on external forces stemmed from fears that All Progressives Congress (APC) members in Abia North and other voters might not support him.
He maintained that the APC members will work against Kalu, adding that Otti is building quality projects, stronger than what Kalu delivered as Governor and will secure a second term in office.
Okafor further stated that any candidate Governor Otti will endorse for any position in the 2027 election would win.
He declared, “Kalu would be disappointed by the external powers he could be banking on because this time, everyone would be fighting for their political lives.
“APC members in Abia will work fervently against Orji Kalu.
“Ultimately, any candidate endorsed by Dr Otti for any position in 2027, including the Abia North Senatorial slot, already has a 70% chance of victory.”
