“I Left $4 Billion Balance Sheet In My Companies Before Joining Politics” – Orji Uzor Kalu

Nigerian senator Orji Uzor Kalu disclosed that prior to entering politics, he left a $4 billion balance sheet generated by his companies in 1998.

This statement was shared in a post on social media.

He asserted that upon entering politics in 1998, he possessed sufficient resources to financially support his former party, the PDP.

He said:-

“I built several entities (businesses particularly in the media, oil, and gas sector, shipping, airlines, and others), and in 1998, I left more than a $4 Billion balance sheet in my companies before venturing into politics”.

He wondered why people like him are expected to be penniless while those who have done next to nothing parade themselves as achievers.

He noted further:-

“In 1998, I used my resources to fund the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), my former party, and certain personalities. I built several entities (businesses particularly in the media, oil, and gas sector, shipping, airlines, and others).

“Today, those who have done next to nothing in the private sector are the ones parading themselves as achievers and saints. Whereas the real face of the organized private sector and other accomplished personalities like myself who have worked tirelessly and multiplied investments are expected to be penniless.

“Even though I have had my ups and downs, the fact is that I didn’t start life as a politician. I am a businessman, a capitalist with a human face.”
