Orji Uzor Kalu, senator representing Abia North Senatorial District in Abia State has revealed he only supported same faith ticket for presidency because that’s the only option for the All Progressive Congress (APC) to will the election but will not accept a Muslim Senate President.

VerseNews Nigeria reports that Kalu while addressing journalists on Tuesday, March 21 in his campaign for senate presidency said a Muslim ticket is never a good option for a secular state like Nigeria.

He noted that the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu needs someone with a high character to turn around Nigeria’s economy and considered himself the best option.

Kalu when asked if he will be comfortable a Muslim Senate president said; “The answer is no. Because I speak the truth. Like I told you people that I will stand for Muslim Muslim ticket. That is the only thing that will win APC.”

“I will not be comfortable for Muslim Senate President because this is a secular state. In a secular state we need to accommodate into race nations upon nations and spread to be able to maintain the secularity of our country.”

“So I believe that to me, like I told you before, the truth here before that I believe in Muslim Muslim tickets. I will not believe in another accident. President be the Muslim. It will not all go well for the country.”

“I would like the party to zone it to me with my name. If they can do that, it will be very good because President Tinibu needs people of high character to turn around this economy to make sure that we work for the masses and make laws that will enable him to turn around economy. I’m an economic person, you know, I’m an entrepreneur.”
