I Was an International Arms Dealer Before My Parents Stopped Me – Orji Kalu

The Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, has revealed that he was once involved in the international trade of heavy weapons, selling arms to buyers in different countries before eventually quitting the business.

Kalu disclosed this while speaking about his past business activities, explaining that he left the arms trade following pressure from his parents.

According to the former Abia State governor, his parents were uncomfortable with his involvement in the business and insisted that he abandon it.

He eventually listened to their advice and walked away from the trade.

The revelation has drawn attention to the senator's business history, particularly his claim of having participated in the international arms market before venturing into other areas of business and public service.

Kalu, who served as governor of Abia State from 1999 to 2007, is currently representing Abia North Senatorial District in the National Assembly.

ReportNaija reports that Kalu is also a businessman who has been involved in several commercial ventures over the years.
