Kalu also commended Nigerians for enduring economic reforms under President Tinubu, including fuel subsidy removal, and supported diaspora voting, pending electoral system improvements.
He highlighted his role in resolving unpaid contractor issues in the Federal Capital Territory through legislative collaboration, underscoring unity among Nigeria’s government branches.
