Speaking at the APC South-East Stakeholders’ meeting in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State on Sunday, Kalu emphasized the need for collective action to ensure the fruition of national goals.
Addressing attendees, Kalu underscored the achievements of the federal government under President Tinubu, highlighting economic reforms and sectoral improvements designed to enhance living standards.
“President Tinubu’s administration has implemented bold economic reforms, including the unification of the FOREX market and increased investments in healthcare, education, and infrastructure,” Kalu remarked, citing these initiatives as pivotal in boosting investor confidence and positioning Nigeria as a global economic player.
“In addition to legislative support from the National Assembly, these reforms have stabilized the economy and strengthened national security,” Kalu added, referencing advancements in securing the nation and combating insurgency.
The Deputy Speaker also stressed the importance of political consolidation in the South East, advocating for more states to come under APC leadership. He acknowledged the existing challenges and called for concerted efforts to expand the party’s influence in the region.

With only two out of five states under APC governance, there is still much ground to cover,” Kalu urged, urging party members to intensify efforts to win over more states in upcoming elections.
Kalu further emphasized the unity within the APC, noting that collective strength and cohesion were vital to achieving the party’s objectives. He urged stakeholders to leverage their strengths and work collaboratively towards expanding APC’s footprint in the South East.
“Our journey is not one of individual ambition but of collective effort. We must unite and support each other to realize our shared vision for a prosperous Nigeria,” Kalu affirmed, calling for sustained commitment to national unity and progress.
The meeting, attended by APC members and dignitaries, served as a platform to strategize on enhancing the party’s presence in the South-East and consolidating support for President Tinubu’s administration’s initiatives.
