Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, Chairman of the Senate Committee on South East Development Commission (SEDC) and representative of Abia North has dismissed speculations about his interest in the 2027 presidential race, reaffirming his commitment to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
His reaction followed a call by the Northern Youth Leaders Forum (NYLF), a coalition of 40 groups, urging him to contest for the presidency with either Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal or Adamawa State Governor, Umar Fintiri, as his running mate.
