Former Abia State Governor and Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, has made a startling revelation about his past business activities.
The former governor admitted that he once sold firearms to make money, adding that he only quit the business after his parents urged him to stop.
Kalu made the revelation during a recent interview on Arise News Prime Time, titled: “Orji Kalu: Business, Politics and Ambition.”
During the interview, he was asked, “You were an arms dealer?”
Kalu responded, “Yes.”
When asked whether he sold guns to people who intended to kill others, the senator said: “I was selling guns to make money. Whether blood was shed was none of my business.”
He further explained: “My parents, my mother, my father came and said I must stop, and I stopped.”
Kalu added that he sold firearms to anyone who could afford them, saying: “I was selling to anybody who wants to buy, right? You have the money. It’s only by business; that is all I know.”
