2023: Mascot Kalu Commences Abia North Verification Tour, Says His Mission Is To Fix

The governorship candidate of Action Peoples Party (APP) for the 2023 gubernatorial election in Abia state, Chief Mascot Uzor-Kalu on Saturday continued his state-wide verification tour in Abia North, beginning from Arochukwu where he said that he is on a mission to fix the state.

Chief Mascot Kalu arrived the ancient kingdom of Arochukwu, the headquarters of Arochukwu LGA, in the company of APP’s Deputy State Chairman, Chukwu Ndem Chukwu; APP’s candidate for Ohafia/Arochukwu Federal Constituency, Rt. Hon. Prince Arua Arunsi; APP’s candidate for Arochukwu State Constituency; and his entire entourage, where they were received by elated executive members of APP, Reality Organization, and OUK Movement for a brief town hall meeting.

In his address to the people, Chief Kalu said his party, APP, is on a mission to fix Abia state, stating that his government house’s experience will enable him to hit the ground running immediately if elected as Governor. He, therefore, admonished the people to become fishers of men to realize the dream of fixing Abia.

“APP is the gathering of brethren that is coming to fix Abia. But for that to happen, you people have to be fishers of men. So go to your respective wards and spread the good news; bring out your people for me to speak to them personally when I come on ward tour.

“Others will have a learning curve in the government house, but I am the only one that will hit the ground running right from the next day of our swearing-in.”

On his part, the APP’s candidate for the Ohafia/Arochukwu Federal Constituency, who is also a one-time former Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Prince Arua Arunsi, said the abysmal failure of the ruling party, the PDP, has made the mission of the APP in taking over Abia state easier.

He further went on to express his confidence that the youthfulness of Chief Mascot Uzor Kalu, his experience, and economic sagacity are the prerequisites needed to fix Abia.
