“Nigerians need to feel the impact of our party. I have the integrity, honesty and experience to lead the senate,” Mr Kalu said.

Mr Kalu, before the closed-door meeting, expressed gratitude to God for Mr Tinubu’s successful vacation and safe return to Nigeria.

Speaking to newsmen after the meeting, Mr Kalu said the purpose of his visit was to officially welcome and felicitate with the president-elect on his return from a successful vacation in Europe.
