Former Abia State Governor and current Chief Whip at the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, said he learnt lesson from his incarceration and is grateful to God for allowing him to go to prison and come back.
Kalu, who stated this in Umuahia on Tuesday, March 23; said that going to prison was a good experience for him.
According to the statement by his Media Aide, Peter Eze, some prominent Abia politicians; who were unhappy with Kalu’s criticism against the state government; accused him of still suffering from his prison experience.
But speaking at a campaign rally for Chief Mascot Kalu, his younger brother and the All Progressive Congress, APC, candidate for the March 27 Aba North/South Federal Constituency poll; Kalu thanked God for his prison experience.
Kalu, said that his detractors were “little-minded to think he is ashamed of his prison experience.
“My conspirators thought I would be president in 2023, so they decided to cut my journey short at all cost.
“But you see, these people are not God.
“They think I am ashamed to have gone to prison.
“I am not and I don’t blame them because they don’t know my relationship with God.
“My going to prison is part of my life script and I am thankful God allowed it.
“They are little minds and wicked people, who have refused to do any project for their own people.”
