Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo on Monday said the presidential candidate of the Labour party, Peter Obi cannot win the 2023 presidential elections and is only playing a game.
Soludo in an opinion piece on his official social media page Obi knows the game he is playing, the reason he didn’t return to APGA.
“Let’s be clear: Peter Obi knows that he can’t and won’t win,” Soludo said.
“He knows the game he is playing, and we know too; and he knows that we know.
“The game he is playing is the main reason he didn’t return to APGA.
“The brutal truth (and some will say, God forbid) is that there are two persons/parties seriously contesting for president: the rest is exciting drama!
As my brother, I wish him well and even pray for him. I told him during his courtesy call that my prayer is that himself or Prof Umeadi of APGA would win, why not?
That is from my heart, but I also told him that my head and facts on the ground led me to know that it’s probability is next to zero (what I cannot say before you, I won’t say behind you). So I already told him my opinion.
Of course, Peter Obi will get some votes, and may probably win in Anambra state— as “home boy”.
But Anambra is not Nigeria. If he likes, I can even campaign for him but that won’t change much.
” let me once again wish my brother Peter Obi good luck. He should have fun and enjoy the fleeting frenzy of the moment. But he must moderate the desperation as exhibited by his social media mob.
“There is a limit to propaganda. A mob action often reflects the character of its leader. No one has a monopoly of social media violence, and no one should play God. Life won’t end by February/March 2023.
“I hope that after February 2023, Peter Obi will return to APGA (the party that made him everything he is politically) as I offered him on 8th March, 2022 and begin the hard work, if he truly wants to be president of Nigeria.
” It won’t happen by desperately jumping from one party to another or by unleashing a social media mob on everyone who slightly disagrees with you.
