Kalu announced his withdrawal from the race on Tuesday morning at exactly 1:54 am, citing the position of the APC leadership as the reason for his decision.
The former governor tweeted: “I decided to throw my hat into the ring to contest for the position of Deputy Senate President @NGRSenate after wide consultations with stakeholders especially my political associates, friends & colleagues (returning senators & senators-elect).
“However, I use this medium to announce my withdrawal from the race in the interest of the APC @OfficialAPCNg & Nigeria at large. I contested & won election as a Senator on the platform of the APC @APCNigeria & as such, I cannot go against the decision of my party.
“The party, I am optimistic will consider the South East for other principal positions in the Senate @NGRSenate & House of Representatives @HouseNGR for the sake of national unity. The South East should be ably & well represented at the top hierarchy of the 9th national assembly.
