The All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders have expressed their appreciation for Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu’s efforts in promoting the political interests of the South-East region of Nigeria. In a statement from the APC Integrity Group, the leaders emphasized Kalu's leadership as instrumental in amplifying the voice and influence of the region within the national political arena. They attribute a recent increase in support for the APC in the South-East to his active engagement and effective representation of the region's concerns.

The statement highlighted the enthusiasm of South-East residents, particularly in the Federal Capital Territory, during the recent FCT Area Councils elections, where they showed strong support for the ruling party's candidates. The APC has historically faced challenges in winning the confidence of voters in this area, but this shift suggests a growing acceptance and solidarity among the populace, which the party leaders believe is tied to Kalu’s commitment and outreach efforts. This change could signal a new political landscape for the APC in the South-East as they seek to solidify their presence and influence in upcoming elections.

Overall, the APC Integrity Group's praise of Kalu not only underscores his pivotal role within the party but also reflects the broader effort to consolidate political power in the region. As Kalu continues to engage with constituents and amplify their concerns, the party aims to further entrench itself in a region that has traditionally been a stronghold for rival parties, potentially reshaping the political dynamics of Nigeria's federal structure.
