Abia 2027: When the Vultures Gather, the Eagle Flies Higher By Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D (A Concerned Abian and Public Affairs Analyst) Upon reading a news item titled "Abia 2027: Ukwa-Ngwa Leaders of Old Aba Division Beckon Deputy Speaker, Kalu to Run for Governor," I couldn't help but burst into laughter.
