“None of these people parading can defeat President Tinubu. We know ourselves. What are they going to offer Nigerians that we are not offering?” Kalu said.

The senator also advised former President Goodluck Jonathan to resist the urge to recontest for presidency, warning that the constitution bars him from doing so.
“If I’m President Jonathan, I will not think of running for election because first of all, he is constitutionally banned by law — nobody can do more than eight years. If I’m Goodluck Jonathan, I will just be the statesman that I am,” Kalu stated.
