2023: Ohaneze Disowns Soludo over Attack on Obi
POLITICS DIGEST- The Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has lashed out at Anambra Governor, Charles Soludo, over his statement on the presidential candidate of the Labour Party(LP) Peter Obi.
Soludo, in a lengthy letter on Monday, lashed out at Obi stating that he knows that he can’t and won’t win the presidency. He maintained that Obi was not ready for the presidential race, declaring he was merely catching a cruise.
Ohanaeze, in a statement signed by its Secretary-General, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, on Tuesday said it had dragged Soludo to two deities in Igbo land, for discrediting the legacies of Peter Obi.
The statement read : “Ndigbo have dragged Governor Soludo to the two famous divinities and deities (Chokoleze in Mbaise and Ubiniukpabi in Arochuku) for his unreasonable public behaviour.

“Governor Soludo’s actions are ridiculous, unreasonable and premature; there was no locus for the Governor’s outburst and the sanctions against Soludo to face Igbo deities will serve as a deterrent to South-East politicians who have been hired by enemies of Ndigbo and Nigerians to derail the Obi’s presidency in 2023.
“Governor Soludo exposed and indicted himself of treachery when he discredited APGA and Labour Party’s presidential candidates as not viable alternatives to win the 2023 elections.
“How can a state governor of two presidential candidates (APGA and LP) make such a public declaration?
“He has confirmed that he is the number one enemy of the new Nigeria and was hired by an unpopular presidential candidate who is looking for Igbo politicians to pull down Obi’s popularity ahead of the 2023 elections.
“We advise Soludo to concentrate on the current crisis in Anambra State and APGA and stop casting innuendo and aspersions on the person of Mr. Peter Obi. The LP presidential candidate is not in the same political party with him and is not fighting the Anambra State Government.”
