In a statement, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-political organization, has listed punishments that would be meted out to the Anambra State governor, Chukwuma Soludo, over his recent attack on the Labour Party (LP), presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi.
In addition, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, said it has dragged Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo, to deities over his statement on the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) Peter Obi.
In the statement signed by its Secretary General, Okechukwu Isiguzoro on Tuesday November 15, Ohanaeze said it has dragged Soludo to two deities in Igbo land, and that it would ensure that Soludo never gets a second term as Governor for discrediting the legacies of Peter Obi.
According to the Ohanaeze scribe, the Southeast would see Soludo as the enemy who worked against their 2023 presidential chances.
He said: “For Soludo to have come out to insult the candidate of Nigeria, he might not return to the office because Ndigbo would punish him by making him a one-term governor. Soludo may face a great political challenge in Anambra State because the masses will rise against him.
“Ndigbo have dragged Governor Soludo to the two famous divinities and deities (Chokoleze in Mbaise and Ubiniukpabi in Arochuku) for his unreasonable public behaviour.
“The people of the Southeast will now see him as an enemy and the chief political undertaker of the chances of the Southeast to emerge in 2023.
“There must be political repercussions and one of which is that the Ndigbo would task the Anambra State House of Assembly to do the needful.
“Ndigbo will look away to remove all those bad eggs who have mortgage our political interest, those who have portrayed us in bad light that we are not united.
“For him to have shown and demonstrated that he was been enrolled to come and thwart being the Governor of two presidential candidates, APGA and Labour Party in 2023, and is the best person to be hired as an undertaker to bury Peter Obi’s presidency, this has begun the end of his political sojourn as the Governor of Anambra State.
“In the nearest future, the Igbos will encourage anything that would make the Anambra House of Assembly remove Soludo out of the way.
“Ndigbo will rise up in any gathering to challenge the views of Soludo to the great Igbo nation. Soludo’s activities in the last few days have been an affront and slap on the Igbo nation, and Ndigbo would return such with a very big sanction, and the political sojourn of Soludo as the Governor of Anambra State is over.”
The former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor had said Obi would never win the 2023 presidential election.
