Senator Kalu Urges IBB to reveal names behind June 12 Election controversy in Autobiography sequel

The Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu has asked Nigeria’s former Military President, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, IBB to write a second edition of his autobiography, JOURNEY IN SERVICE and mention the names of those, who stopped him from declaring Moshood Abiola winner of the June 12 Presidential , 1993 election.
Speaking to journalists in Abuja on Tuesday, Kalu said IBB should name the accomplices to his second in command, late General Sani Abacha and the Chairman of National Election Commission, Humphrey Nwosu so that Nigerians will know the role they all played so that it would not look as if he lied.
For the first time in 32 years , IBB admits in his autobiography now highly debated book that MKO Abiola , candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP won the annulled election.
Kalu also asked President Bola Tinubu to swear MKO in posthumously and his picture allowed to hang in the hall of fame of former Presidents of the country.
The former Governor of Abia State said he’s glad that Babangida’s book has finally cleared the misconception that the 1966 coup is an Igbo coup but rather a Nigerian coup , coordinated and executed by the military but erroneously blamed on Igbos in the country.
In the race for 2027, Kalu said his party APC is not shopping for any other candidate, apart from the sitting President, Bola Tinubu who he said he has no doubt will win a second term.
