The All Progressive Congress, APC, Abia State chapter, has reacted to the court decision of releasing Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, the chief whip of the Senate from prison.
“It is obvious that what must be must be. The decision of Federal High Court in Lagos to order the release of our leader, His Excellency Senator, Orji Uzor Kalu, from prison today has proven that what must be must be”, the party writes in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Comrade Benedict C. Godson.
It should be recalled that a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos, earlier today gave an order for immediate release of Kalu who has been in incarceration over an allegation by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission.
Reacting over the court decision, APC Abia said; “When the decision to jail him was revoked by the Supreme Court, we were not surprised. Today, we are not surprised as well because what must be must be”.
“We’re glad that in this new month, God has given us a new gift. Our leader’s freedom is a huge gift to all of us.
“It a huge celebration in the streets of Aba and Umuahia. Let those who can dance go ahead and dance. But my advice to everyone is to celebrate responsibly and keep to Covid-19 directives.
“To all APC members, to all Abians to Ndigbo, our song should be a song of victory. Hallelujah should be our language because the man of the people has been released from where he shouldn’t be in the first place.
“All glory, honour, power and adoration be onto God, our king and our maker for granting our political leader this freedom.
“We shall remain grateful to God and never forget that he alone made it possible because he’s the greatest and fairest judge.
