Abia Youth Group Supports Kalu, Rejects Project Claims

The Abia Progress Youth Frontier (APYF) issued a statement defending Benjamin Kalu, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, against allegations of neglecting constituency projects. The group, led by coordinator Chinedu Nwafor, described the claims as misleading and politically motivated.

They highlighted Kalu's significant contributions to infrastructure, education, and healthcare in Abia State, asserting that he has positively impacted youth empowerment and development initiatives. The APYF criticized the tendency to label projects as abandoned without understanding the execution process, stressing the importance of evidence-based scrutiny over social media sensationalism.

They called for anti-corruption agencies to maintain professional oversight without political pressure and emphasized that Kalu's interventions have visibly benefited the community. The group urged caution against creating false impressions that could damage reputations without verified findings, reaffirming Kalu's commitment to effective representation and development in Abia State.
