Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has declared that he would quit the All Progressives Congress (APC) if President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ever disrespects Catholic bishops, insisting that his loyalty to the Church is unwavering.
The former Abia State governor made the remark while reaffirming his deep commitment to the Catholic faith, stressing that respect for religious leaders remains a non-negotiable principle for him.
Kalu said although he remains a loyal member of the ruling APC and supports President Tinubu’s administration, he would not hesitate to leave the party if the President was seen to have shown disrespect to Catholic bishops.
The senator maintained that religious institutions and their leaders deserve dignity and should never be dragged into political conflicts or treated with contempt.
His comments come amid heightened public discussions over relations between political leaders and religious bodies, with Kalu’s position underscoring the sensitivity of faith-based issues in Nigeria’s political landscape.
The outspoken lawmaker’s declaration has already sparked political reactions, with observers viewing it as a strong message on the importance of preserving mutual respect between government and religious institutions.
