Senator Orji Uzor Kalu says he has never benefited anything as a politician, rather, has spent his money to enhance his political career.


Speaking on Channels TV today June 2, Kalu who served as governor of Abia state from 1999 to 2007 and currently represents Abia North in the Senate, insists that he is a businessman who has continued to set up businesses to employ Nigerians.


He said that when the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was formed in 1998, he donated millions of dollars to the party, adding that he used his money to finance Abia when he was the state governor.


‘’I spent my own money being governor like I spent my own money being a Senator. I used to finance the state.

That is the truth. I never benefitted anything being governor, rather I lost a lot of money. The Federal government took a lot of my businesses. For me, Politics
has been more dangerous to me'' Speaking further, he said


“I made so much money under 24. I did not benefit anything from being a governor. I brought the money they used in forming the PDP. Ask any PDP member, I brought most of the money they used in 1998 and 1999.”


Asked where he got the money to fund the party, he said it was from his businesses.


“I am the biggest importer of rice, sugar, confectionaries, and the rest of them and I was also selling petrol,” he said.


Then, dollar was big money, I gave President Obasanjo over $1 million to campaign. I gave the party $500 million. The only few people who could have brought money then were TY Danjuma and Atiku Abubakar, others had no money to bring and that’s the truth.”
