He said, “It is my turn to become the Senate President. If I’m elected Senate President, I will be Team Nigeria. I’m going to work in every corner of Nigeria.

“I schooled in Maiduguri, Borno State. I started my business in Lagos and spread it across all state capitals. My first name will be team Nigeria, my last name will be team Nigeria”.

Reports had emerged that the Senate Presidency may be zoned to the Southeast, and Kalu, the lawmaker representing Abia North Senatorial District, could be fit for the position.
