Recall that Orji Kalu who was the Leader of Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA), political party, which was founded by him, decamped the party recently and joined the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).

Revealing why he defected to APC, Kalu said, he joined APC because the president has fulfilled the promise made to him during the 2015 electoral campaign of repairing South East federal roads which the former administration of Goodluck Jonathan failed to have done.

According to the business mogul; "As an Igbo man who have seen it all, trained in business by the Hausa Fulani and started business in the South West. I sincerely believe it is better for the Igbos to sit where other Nigerians are sitting.

"I recall that on complaining of how the bad roads in the South East has been a great source of worry to me and our people, President Muhammadu Buhari personally promised me that all the contractors in the South East will return to sites before the end of November.

"Today, contractors are fully back to the many abandoned Federal roads in Eastern Nigeria. These are part of the reasons for joining the party.

"I joined the APC because President Buhari has fulfilled the promise he made to me and we are hopeful he will do more.

Meanwhile, Orji had a few days ago while receiving some bloggers who paid him a courtesy visit in his hometown in Igbere, Abia State called on all Igbos to embrace the idea of aiming for the presidency rather than agitating for Biafra
