I Have No Planned Medical Trip To Germany ― Kalu

Senate Chief Whip, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has denied that he aborted a planned medical trip to Germany.

Kalu described the speculated reports that he suspended his trip following an attack on Senator Ike Ekweremadu as totally untrue and a figment of the writer’s imagination.

Senator Ekweremadu was assaulted in Germany, at the weekend by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The former Deputy Senate President was invited as a guest speaker at the 2nd Annual Igbo Cultural Festival in Nuremberg, Germany, when the assault took place.

The former Abia state governor in a statement said since the National Assembly went on recess, he has been in his country home, Igbere, interacting with members of his Constituency.

The statement read in part: “I have been in my country home interacting with the people of my constituency and settling disputes”, he said.
