Just In: Benjamin Kalu Declares Return Bid to National Assembly, Cites Record of Legislative Impact in Bende

Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu has declared to return to the National Assembly, and for the good people of Bende Federal Constituency, this is not just politics, it is continuity of proven leadership, effective representation, and visible results.

Leadership is best judged by impact, and Ben Kalu has given Bende enough reasons to stand solidly behind him once again.

Through his legislative excellence, he championed the establishment of the Federal College of Education, Bende, creating opportunities for learning, employment, and development for our people.

He also pushed for the Federal University of Medical and Health Sciences, Bende, a landmark achievement that will transform education, healthcare, and the economy of our constituency for generations to come.

His role in the establishment of the South East Development Commission (SEDC) remains a historic victory, bringing renewed hope for reconstruction, empowerment, and regional growth across the South East.

With over 127 bills sponsored, Ben has shown that representation is not about occupying a seat, but about delivering results that touch lives.

He has empowered youths, supported women, created jobs, attracted federal appointments, and opened doors for many families across Bende.

At the international level, he placed Nigeria on the global map through his outstanding performance at the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), where he successfully pushed a Nigerian-backed resolution to adoption, the first of its kind.

He has not only represented Bende, he has made Bende proud.

This is why his return to the National Assembly deserves our full support. A man who has delivered should be encouraged to do more.

With greater experience, stronger influence, and a clearer vision, we believe Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu will do even more for Bende in the years ahead.

More roads of opportunity.

More institutions.

More empowerment.

More federal presence.

More voice for our people.

Bende knows who works.

Bende knows who delivers.

Bende knows who carries the people along.

Our support is total.

Our confidence is firm.

Our voice is one.

Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu, PhD, CFR
