The Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL), the apex sociopolitical youth group in the South East geopolitical zone has declared that there is no vacancy in Abia North Senatorial zone in 2027.
However, they called on all political parties not to feed any other candidate in the senatorial zone but to rather adopt Senator Orji Uzor Kalu of the All Progressive Party, APC, as their consensus candidate for 2027 elections.
In a state statement issued on Sunday in Owerri jointly endorsed by the President General of COSEYL Comrade Goodluck Ibem and the Publicity Scretary Comrade Okey Nwaoru, they said that the Senator has proven beyond every reasonable doubt that he didn’t go to the Senate to count the number of seats or sleep at the Red Chambers, but rather he is at the Senate for serious business of governance which is to speak, defend and bring back dividends of democracy to his people who sent him there.

According to them, COSEYL is elated over what they described as the futuristic and trailblazing performance of Senator Orji Uzor Kalu representing Abia North senatorial zone at the red chambers.
The Youth body observed that Senator Kalu has given the zone a facelift and also restored the wasted years of non performance by previous representative of the zone.
They said, “before now, his constituents were made to believe that representation only means going to the National Assembly to speak grammar and come back without any democracy dividends for the people, but Senator Kalu has opened the eyes of the people to know that there is more to being a representative of the people”.
COSEYL said that Senator Kalu has rehabilitated and constructed over 90 roads, created and constructed new roads, given scholarships to indigents students to study abroad and in the country, empowered thousands of his constituents which are mostly youths and widows that truly need them, rehabilitated 78 schools and a whole lot of other democracy dividends too numerous to mention.
They continued, “Senator Kalu’s name in politics and leadership is synonymous to performance.
“People from the zone are joyous when his name is being mentioned because of the positive impact he has made in the lives of the people. He is indeed a trailblazer and an enigma of sorts”.
