Abia-born cleric, Bishop Silas Eke, has attributed the overwhelming call for Senator Orji Uzor Kalu to seek another term in 2027 to his exceptional performance as the lawmaker representing Abia North Senatorial District in the National Assembly.

Speaking with newsmen in Umuahia on Saturday, Bishop Eke noted that Kalu’s achievements have positively impacted all three senatorial districts in Abia State.

He stated: “If you visit Abia South Senatorial District, you will see the projects he attracted to Ariaria in Aba and its environs. In Abia Central, you’ll find his projects in Isialangwa and the hostels he built in Umuahia. In the Northern Senatorial District, which he represents, his projects are evident across Arochukwu, Ohafia, Bende, Isikwuato, and Umunneochi.

“Therefore, it is the collective wish of the entire state for him to return to the Senate in 2027. We are all appealing to him to run again and continue the good work he is doing across Abia. As a pastor who has been here for over 30 years, I can boldly say that until Kalu emerged in 2019, we never knew lawmakers could also construct roads, schools, health centres, and much more.

“He is currently renovating and constructing over 100 schools across Abia North Senatorial District, an unprecedented feat in the state’s history. Additionally, he has constructed over 70 rural roads, installed solar-powered streetlights in over 150 communities, distributed educational materials, and sponsored students on scholarships to South America. His numerous human development programs are simply remarkable.”

Bishop Eke also praised Kalu’s legacy as the former Executive Governor of Abia State, where he introduced free education for all.

He emphasised that the widespread support for Kalu’s re-election bid cuts across traditional rulers, town union leaders, university lecturers, medical professionals, teachers, lawyers, women, and youth leaders.

“You cannot have someone like Senator Orji Uzor Kalu and not beg him to run again in 2027. Abia State is blessed to have him. We are proud of him because he is a huge asset, and we are confident he will heed our call by joining the race in 2027 as the consensus candidate for Abia North Senatorial District,” Bishop Eke concluded.
