I can be the sweeper of the villa if Lawan becomes president – Orji Kalu

Senate’s chief whip, Orji Kalu says he is willing to become a sweeper at the presidential residence if Senate President, Ahmed Lawan becomes president.

He said this in an interview on Channels Television on Monday.

The Senator had announced his withdrawal from the presidential race last Monday, claiming that the APC has “no zoning” and that the campaign is open to all candidates.

Orji kalu during the interview said he will make a U-turn if the APC decides to zone its presidential ticket to the south-east region of the party.

When asked to react to claims that he is supporting Lawan so that he can become the next senate president, Kalu said he does not need to have a position if Lawan becomes the next president.

“With Ahmad Lawan, I am ready to be the sweeper of the place (referring to Aso Rock). I don’t need to have a position if Ahmad Lawan is president. That is true,” he said.

“I can sweep the villa. My house is very close to the villa. I can be the sweeper of the villa.”
