Essential Ndubuisi
If with Prof Soludo’s record of being a Former CBN Governor, a former Special Adviser to President Obasanjo on Economic matters, serving member of President Buhari’s economic team, chairman Anambra vision 2070 and with the support of Gov Obiano, Victor Umeh and co, majority of APGA members do not want him as their governorship candidate, then something is wrong somewhere.
This same thing happened to him in PDP in 2010, where PDP members and leaders deserted him.
It is happening again in APGA.
It is worrying that over 300 political appointees in this govt are openly against him despite the backing of his candidature by their boss – the governor.
It is more worrisome that about 130 ward chairmen are also against him. And out of 24 APGA House of Assembly Members, 15 of them have vowed to ensure he does not fly APGA flag.
His aspiration has caused APGA to split into 3 factions. Even in Oye’s camp, about 2/3 of members of NWC are against him. The same thing at the state leadership.
There are more people in APGA govt including Madam who do not want Soludo but have not come out open to reject him.
What Channels TV camera captured at the venue of the primaries of June 23, where a major stakeholder in APGA was seen in a video footage making gesture and caricature of Soludo should send a worrying signal.
These developments should worry Gov Obiano if he is truly backing Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo.
Soludo Is Very Unpopular and will be defeated on November 6. A candidate who is being rejected by all structures of his party can not be accepted by the people on November 6 governorship election.
