Benjamin Kalu, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, said on Friday that in the 2027 presidential election, President Bola Tinubu will garner between 70 and 80 percent of the vote from the South-East.

Kalu promised that the South-East’s vote total would be the Igbo people’s way of giving Tinubu back for his dedication to the region’s progress.

In Ntalakwu, in the Ikwuano Local Government Area of Abia State, he made this pledge, according to a statement signed by Levinus Nwabughiogu, his chief press secretary.

Kalu said, “We are promising the President, 70 to 80 per cent of votes from Igboland. Let us continue to remain as people who love peace and unity.

“No other President has remembered the promise made to the Igbo people after the war like President Bola Tinubu.

“Fifty years came and passed, administrations came and passed, none of them deemed it right to fulfil those promises made to Ndi Igbo, and only President Bola Tinubu took it upon himself and said, there must be a platform to respond to those proposals made to Ndi Igbo.

“He chose the South East Development Commission which no other President accepted to sign. He answered our problem to enable us to develop the rural communities in Igboland.

“He signed the SEDC bill into law and has funded it even when naysayers said he wouldn’t. He loves Ndi Igbo and we Igbos remember those who love us.”
