Describes voting Ukachukwu of the APC as political suicide
From Aloysius Attah, Onitsha
The National Coordinator of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) Media Warriors Forum, Evangelist Chinedu Obigwe, has stated that no amount of opposition propaganda will push the people of Anambra State into what he described as a “suicidal mistake” of voting against Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo in the November 8 governorship election.
Obigwe, who stated this in a press release on Monday, dismissed what he termed “childish propaganda” being peddled by the opposition, insisting that the Soludo administration enjoys the confidence of the people.
He said some members of the opposition in Anambra are engaging in childish propaganda that cannot fly in the minds of Anambra voters who are much wiser.
“All they bank on to win the governorship election is blackmail. But the truth remains that their propaganda cannot sway the electorate into making the suicidal mistake of voting for their drowning candidate, Nicholas Ukachukwu.”
He faulted videos circulated online showing Governor Soludo’s convoy navigating bad portions of the Enugu Otu road, which the opposition tagged “Enugu Otu Dubai Taiwan,” describing the attempt as “pouring water on a stone.”
Obigwe explained that the governor’s decision to drive through the road was deliberate, aimed at personally inspecting the ongoing 28.1km Enugu Otu–Aguleri road project and commissioning a newly built general hospital in the area.
“Not all governors can do what Soludo did. Some would have chosen to fly in a chopper, but he decided to drive through that difficult terrain so as to feel the pains of the people and ensure their sufferings are alleviated,” Obigwe noted.
According to him, the road project, which cuts across Enugu Otu, Mkpunando and Eziagulu Otu Aguleri communities, is being executed in three phases, with the first 8.1km phase already 95 percent completed.
“The communities of Enugu-Otu, Mkpunando, and Eziagulu Otu Aguleri will remain eternally grateful to Governor Soludo for the ongoing 28.1km access road project. For years, these areas were only accessible via the Ayamelum route. Going through Aguleri was deemed impossible—until Soludo took up the challenge,” he stated.
He stressed that the governor has given assurance that the second and third phases will be delivered without abandonment.
He also commended Soludo for constructing a new general hospital for the people of Enugu Otu, a project he said the community did not request but which the governor considered necessary out of empathy for their health needs.
Describing Soludo as a “humane leader delivering governance with empathy,” Obigwe urged Anambra voters to ignore opposition “blackmail” and to return the governor to office for a second term to consolidate ongoing development projects.
“The people of Anambra State are happy with Governor Soludo’s divine mission, and no amount of cooked-up propaganda can stop his re-election on November 8,” he concluded.
