The National Coordinator of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) Media Warriors Forum, Mr Chinedu Obigwe, has said that no amount of propaganda by the opposition will push the people of Anambra State into what he described as a “suicidal mistake” of voting against Governor Chukwuma Soludo in the November 8 governorship election.

In a statement in Awka, Obigwe dismissed what he termed “childish propaganda” being peddled by the opposition, insisting that the Soludo administration enjoys the confidence of the people.

“All that the opposition is banking 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 them.

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.

Not all governors can do what Soludo is doing. Some would have chosen to be flying in a chopper, but he decided to be driving through difficult terrain so as to feel the pains of the people and ensure their sufferings are alleviated,” Obigwe noted.

He faulted the video circulating online showing Governor Soludo’s convoy driving on the bad portions of the Enugu Otu road, in Anambra East local government area, explaining that the governor’s decision to drive through the road was for him to inspect the ongoing 28.1km Enugu Otu–Aguleri road project and commission the newly built General Hospital in the area.

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.

He said that the governor has given assurance that the second and third phases will be delivered without abandonment.

Obigwe commended Governor Soludo for constructing a new General Hospital for the people of Enugu Otu, a project he said the community did not request for, but which the governor considered necessary out of empathy for their health needs.

Describing Soludo as a “humane leader delivering governance with empathy,” he urged Anambra electorate to return the governor to office for a second term to consolidate ongoing development projects across the state.
