Former Abia State Governor and current Senator, Orji Kalu, has emphasized that increased investment and stronger measures to tackle insecurity are essential for achieving sustainable economic growth in Nigeria. He made these remarks during a recent interview, as reported by Nigerian media on June 24, 2026.
Kalu, a prominent politician from the All Progressives Congress (APC), reiterated his belief in the unity of Nigeria, stating that he will continue to pray for the country's unity until his death. He called for collective efforts to address the nation's challenges, particularly in the areas of security and economic development.
The senator's comments come amid ongoing debates about Nigeria's economic policies and security situation. Kalu has previously advocated for policies that support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and improve infrastructure to attract both local and foreign investment.
