Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State has said Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party, might win the state in the forthcoming 2023 presidential election.
Soludo stated this in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday evening, monitored by Bellnewsonline.com.
“I wish Peter Obi the best of luck. Let him go and compete as others,” Soludo said.
“We (APGA) are also competing in the same race. We have our own candidate (Peter Umeadi), who is also son of the soil, coincidentally from Anambra State as well, and he will do his own bit, get his own votes.”
Last November, Soludo authored a scathing piece about Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, where he dismissed the Labour Party’s chances at the coming poll.
His article was however met with criticism from Obi’s supporters, many of whom accused the incumbent Anambra governor of jealousy.
Although Soludo promised to release the concluding part of his anti-Obi article, no new piece has been written.
