TODAY March 3, 2021 The Senate Minority Leader, Enyinnaya Abaribe, said he was taken to a shrine to swear an oath of loyalty 24 hours before his inauguration as Deputy Governor in 1999. Abaribe was deputy to Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, who was then Abia State Governor, from May 29, 1999 till March 2003 before he resigned and defected to the defunct All Nigeria Peoples Party. Abaribe stated this in his new book: “Made in Aba,” which was launched in Abuja on Monday. He explained that the former Aba North Local Government Area Chairman, one Chief Duru, and Kalu’s younger brother, Uzor, took him to “a so-called prophet” on School Road, Aba in Abia State.
