Obiajulu Joel Nwolu

The candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the ongoing Aba North/Aba South Federal Constituency bye-election, Mr Mascot Kalu, has called for fresh polls in some areas citing violence eruption.

Kalu, who is the younger brother of Chief Orji Kalu, the Chief Whip of the Senate, said this while interacting with reporters at the Eziama High School Ward 01, Unit 014.

He said, “We have reports of malpractice at Abia Polytechnic, vote-buying at Item Hall but here at Eziama, it has been peaceful.

“We had a vigorous campaign and are hopeful we will emerge victoriously but it is the people that will decide at the end of the day,” Kalu said.

He denied the allegation that APC engaged the military to disrupt voting in some wards.

According to him, the military operatives only moved into areas they were invited due to electoral violence.
