James Nwachukwu writes that Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon Benjamin Kalu, has been busy engaging other critical political stakeholders in the South east region ahead of the 2027 re-election bid of President Bola Tinubu.
Last week, Wale Igbintade, hurriedly put up a piece tilted “Tinubu’s Choice of Uzodimma for South-east 2027 Campaign”, published in THISDAY Newspaper, spewing lies after lies. Rather than discussing real issues of national importance, his sole aim was to gleefully cast aspersions on the person of the Deputy Speaker, Rt. Hon. Benjamin OkezieKalu. But he failed woefully.
Igbintade regaled himself with his concocted narrative that President Bola Tinubu did well by naming Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State the coordinator of Renewed Hope Ambassadors instead of the Deputy Speaker. But he wrote as it suited him and his paymasters, never minded his utter display of ignorance in the public space on a subject-matter he knows absolutely nothing about.
