A governorship aspirant under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Abia State, Mr. Kalu Ijomah Ukeh has said that his reputation is his selling point ahead of the 2023 governorship election.
The Chemical Scientist stated this in an interview with newsmen in Umuahia, noting that only a proven character is capable of transforming the state.
He said; “My selling point is my personality as Kalu Ijomah Ukeh. A seasoned technocrat and an industrialist. I am a result-oriented leader with a proven track record that can help transform our dear state.
“Abians are desperate to see someone with a fresh idea; someone who is not a ‘professional politician’, someone that’s independent minded. That’s exactly where I fit in.
“I am coming from a different background of Abia politics. I have never been appointed an aide or senior adviser to anybody. Therefore, I am not indebted to anybody or ‘godfather’.
“Secondly, as someone who started my own company from the scratch to international level, Abia state should expect an explosion in manufacturing activities,” he said.
