PDP Can Not Lose Elections In 2015 When Popular Faces Like Us Are There- Orji Kalu Boasts

The Former Governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu yesterday during his visit to the national secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Abuja has said the insurgency ravaging the North Eastern part of the country is instigated by people who do not want the President to lead the country.

Even though he refused to name their names, he insisted it was politically motivated.  Orji who left PDP in 2007 for PPA only to return last year, made it clear at the party’s secretariat that PDP cannot lose come next year because of popular faces like him who are now in the party.

“The insurgency is politically-motivated because there is no other thing to do.

“It is instigated by people who do not want President Jonathan to be president.’’

Assuring people that PDP cannot lose elections next year, Oji said;

“How can the PDP lose the presidency when it has people like us who are very popular and creating jobs every day? I do not see how PDP will lose the election in 2015?” he said.

“Democracy is not about one person or President Jonathan. We have to bring our efforts together so as to move democracy forward. President Jonathan is doing everything possible to bring the Chibok girls’ back. We must thank our military men for the job they are doing, he added.

“Insurgency is a new thing to us. Insurgency is politically-motivated and it is the people who think Jonathan should not contest the 2015 that are behind it. They should allow him to finish his tenure,” he said.
