According to Kalu, Igbos don’t know how to play politics, hence their inability to rule the nation.
Kalu made this statement at his Igbere country home in Abia State when a socio-cultural Igbo group, Ogbako Igbo paid him a courtesy visit.
He regretted that lack of love and unity, coupled with the fact that Igbo leaders were not good politicians, had made them not to speak with voice on matters of national importance that would be beneficial to their people.
“Igbo political leaders are not good politicians. Politics is all about give and take, and the Igbo should wake up politically if they should overcome their problems.
“I laugh when people advocate for an Igbo regional political party; it may not be possible in this generation again. I formed PPA and it had two states, where are they now? And no Igbo has asked what happened.
“Igbo are the architect of their own problem; the leaders should look back and find out what went wrong with the region, politically, if we are to make any headway”, he stated.
Kalu said he joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) because he had been in the opposition for the past 10 years and the Igbo did not benefit from that.
Among members of the group who visited Kalu include, Prof Konna Anosike, Dr. Obinna Duruji, Rev Fr. Kelechi Hermagualad, Dr. Fabian Ihekweaba, Everest Ezihe, Gele Agbai and Ejimonyeabala Williams of the USA chapter.

YOU KALU IS ONE OF THE ARCHITECTS OF THIS IGBO PROBLEMS. YOU WERE AMONG THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN AGAINST UNITY. YOU GUYS SABOTAGE IGBO UNITY FOR YOUR OWN SELFISH INTERESTS. HAVE THE IGBOS EVER SAT DOWN TO THINK ON THIS. THE ONLY BOND OF UNITY HOLDING OTHER TRIBES TOGETHER IS THEIR HATRED FOR THE IGBOS. THE WORST IS THE IGBOS HATE THEMSELVES MORE. CAN YOU BEAT THAT. THE ISRAELI WENT THROUGH THE SAME ROAD BUT AFTER THE POGROM RETRACED THEIR FOOTSTEPS. IF NOT THEY WOULDN'T HAVE COME BACK TO PALESTINE. THE DECLARATION OF 1948 WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN EFFECTED. TODAY THEY ARE SURROUNDED BY THE ARABS. IF THEY CLOSE THEIR EYES FOR JUST A SECOND THEY WOULD DISAPPEAR INTO THE OCEAN. THE IGBOS MUST LEARN FROM THIS. Jay 2, Abuja.
