JUST IN: “I did not order people to work against Peter Obi” – Soludo opens up

Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State on Wednesday denied asking people to work against Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 election.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that a report had claimed that Governor Soludo ordered members of the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Anambra State to work against Obi, a former governor of the state, at the 2023 election.

But in a statement made available to POLITICS NIGERIA by Soludo’s Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, the governor denied issuing such directive.

“The following should, however, be noted: That Governor Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, only held a private meeting with his party members of the 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.

“Therefore, we urge Ndi-Anambra and members of the general public to completely ignore and disregard the publication,” the statement reads.
