He said, ” following the community feedback mechanism put in place by Senator Orji Kalu, shortly after his assumption of office in 2019, concerned residents and indigenes of Isuikwuato LGA of Abai state, called Kalu’s attention to the erosion challenge facing their communities.

“As always, Kalu immediately wrote a letter to this effect,  which he personally delivered to the SGF.
“He also followed up with meetings with heads of government agencies  in charge of erosion control projects across the country.
“Kalu, indeed used his contacts and position to ensure the project was approved by the federal government.
