Former Governor of Abia State, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has dismissed claims that President Bola Tinubu is pressuring governors and other politicians to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC), insisting that political movement into the party is entirely voluntary.

Kalu made this known on Tuesday while speaking with journalists following the resumption of plenary after the Easter break. He urged political stakeholders to focus on strengthening democratic institutions and presenting credible policy alternatives rather than engaging in what he described as unnecessary criticism.

According to him, President Tinubu has not engaged in any form of persuasion or coercion to force politicians into the APC, stressing that individuals who choose to join the party do so on their own accord.

He explained that the APC operates on open terms for entrants, noting that negotiations only take place when politicians express interest in joining, and membership is not imposed on anyone.

Kalu also dismissed allegations that the Tinubu administration is influencing the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ahead of the 2027 elections, describing such claims as unfounded and harmful to democratic progress.

He further criticised opposition narratives, particularly from the African Democratic Congress (ADC), accusing them of undermining public confidence in the electoral system.

On concerns about marginalisation of the South-East, Kalu argued that successive administrations, including those of former President Muhammadu Buhari and President Tinubu, have made contributions to national development across all regions, including the South-East.
