I’m Not Against Obi – Soludo

Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has debunked allegations that he is plotting to work againt the Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi in the forthcoming 2023 general election.

Some reports had alleged that Governor charged members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the state to work against Peter Obi’s presidential bid.

Reacting to that, the governor through a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, described the publication as an unfounded rumour, utterly fallacious and distasteful.

The governor said it was aimed at mischievously misinforming the people.

Soludo explained that issues discussed during the said meeting were strictly about the party, which is in control of the nation.

Part of the statement reads, “That Governor Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, only held a private meeting with his party members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). This meeting is a routine gathering where issues concerning APGA are discussed.

“At no time during the meeting was, Mr Peter Obi, a point of discourse.

“It is pertinent to note that issues discussed at the meeting were purely issues relating to APGA affairs.

“We therefore urge Ndi-Anambra and members of the general public to completely ignore and disregard the publication in all its entirety.”
