As the South-east east and South-south drag the zoning of the President of the Senate, Senator Orji Kalu has canvassed for the zoning of the position to south east.
According to him, this is one of the ways to guarantee peace in the region.
Kalu, who is Chief Whip in the outgoing 9th Senate, spoke in Abuja on Tuesday after a closed door meeting with President Mohammadu Buhari at the Aso Rock villa.
The former Governor maintained that despite the poor outing of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Southeast during the last Presidential election, the zone deserves the Senate Presidency.
The President-elect, Bola Tinubu, received the least number of votes in the Southeast during the Presidential election.
Speaking with State House Correspondents, Kalu said if the Senate Presidency is zoned to the region, the Southeast will bring peace and unity to the table.
He said that it is not the number of votes that counts, but the unity of the country should be paramount.
