Kalu expressed disappointment on the court verdicts saying “I feel used” as uncontrollable tears kept running down his cheeks.
"I regretted all my support for Muhammadu Buhari and joining APC. I was deceived, used and dumped. After all the promises and series of meetings with APC leaders, I was assured that joining party will bring the case to zero. In fact the court verdict to me is like a dream. I want to use this opportunity to advise Senator Godswill Akpabio and Senator Rochas Okorocha to redress their steps.
If I can still be convicted to 12 years in prison after all I spent to make sure Muhammadu Buhari is re-elected “No Igbo politicians are save” I regretted joining APC.
