Eminent
business mogul and former governor of Abia State, Dr. Orji Kalu, has described
Governor T. A. Orji as a man living in the dark and gloominess of relics.
He
noted that the past eight years of the current administration in Abia State
has been a setback for the state, adding that Governor Orji and his family have
mortgaged the future of Abians.
Kalu,
who spoke through his media office while reacting to a call by Abia State
Government asking him to apologize or risk a legal action for calling Governor
Orji a liar and an incompetent personality, explained that the state of affairs
in Abia is worrisome and calls for urgent redress in the forthcoming polls.
The
former governor said: “Is it not an irony that courts in Abia State have been
on an indefinite strike due to a backlog of salary arrears and yet, Governor
Orji is shamelessly and vacuously threatening litigation against me in the
same courts he is callously indebted to?
“It
is only in Abia that we have both governor and de facto governor. Chinedu Orji
(de facto governor), the governor’s son controls the state’s resources. How do
you expect a governor, who cannot control his wife and son to rule a state of
about six million? It is just sad that we have an incompetent, fraudulent,
wicked, inconsistent and traitorous man at the helm of affairs.”
He
further said: “For Governor Orji to say I am another Olusegun Obasanjo shows
that he has no moral compunction and has no modicum of respect for former
President Obasanjo.
“He
should not dabble or cause further disaffection between President Jonathan and
former President Obasanjo. As I said in my last interview with some
journalists, Governor Orji is a treacherous sycophant that will abandon
President Jonathan in the nearest future.”
The
former governor re-affirmed his stand that rigging and intimidation will be
aggressively resisted in the forthcoming polls, as Abians are now wiser than
the antics of using state machinery to maltreat innocent citizens before,
during and after elections.
He
added: “I am sounding a note of warning to Governor Orji that if he and his
co-travellers dare make use of the army and police for his selfish ambition,
the people will confront any one that attempts to upturn their will.”
Kalu bombs Orji ......tells him ‘you’re incompetent, wicked, treacherous’
