Abia APC Denies Kalu's Endorsement of Otti's Re-election

The Abia State chapter of the APC issued a statement on Friday, categorically denying claims that Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu endorsed Governor Alex Otti for a second term. The party described these claims as misleading, malicious, and deceptive propaganda, allegedly circulated by Otti's media team to create confusion among the public.

The statement emphasized that Kalu has neither publicly nor privately endorsed Otti's re-election. The APC reaffirmed Kalu's loyalty and commitment to the party, asserting that he remains a key figure in the party's structure in Abia State.

The statement further indicated that Kalu is focused on strengthening the party's chances ahead of the 2027 general elections, aiming to unseat the Labour Party government. The APC urged residents of Abia State to remain loyal to the party and support its quest to provide a credible alternative for a better future.
