“He (Otti) is supporting Tinubu. He has no problem with me. I don’t want to talk about the coalition. There are many people in the coalition. Otti is supporting Tinubu, and Tinubu is supporting Otti; that is my deal. I am not into coalition.”Kalu distances himself from the coalitionThe former governor subsequently distanced himself from the coalition plot, while maintaining that most of the key players in the coalition movements have a personal relationship with him, including the likes of Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, Nasir El-Rufai, and Rotimi Amaechi.

Senator Kalu then maintained his firm commitment to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election. This came barely two weeks after the senator put up a drama during the plenary on Tuesday, May 27, when he stormed the national assembly with an attire bearing the inscription “Tinubu for President 2027”.

The lawmaker who addressed journalists after the plenary session explained that his attire was an open endorsement of President Tinubu’s second-term ambition in the 2027 presidential election.

The former governor also added that the campaign outfit has already been adopted by others, saying that he was not the only one already wearing it and that people have started wearing the campaign outfit.

He stressed that his dressing is for the president, adding that the southeast caucus of the APC has long ago endorsed Tinubu’s second term bid, before other groups began to do the same.
