The Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo, has given the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, full access to Government House facilities in Awka.
Atiku will visit Anambra State on Thursday, 15th December to flag off his Presidential Campaign.
Soludo is an All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Governor.
According to Dr Obiora Okonkwo, Director Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign, who brifed the Press in Awka, Atiku would visit Soludo for a parley, after which he would meet the Anambra Council of Traditional Rulers at same Government House. Its Chairman is the revered Obi of Onitsha, Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe.
APGA has its own Presidential Candidate, whose name, politically, only a few people know. A retired Chief Judge of Anambra State, Peter Umeadi, he is yet to launch his Presidential bid. And APGA hardly mentions him.
But the State is home to the Presidential Candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi. Very popular, particularly with Youths country-wide, Soludo, in a stinging essay dismissed Obi’s Presidential ambition as a waste of time. However, Obi is one of the three frontrunners in the race.
For the records, Soludo had earlier allowed Obi to use the banquet hall at the Government House, Awka, to brief Anambra Monarchs on his Presidential ambition. They endorsed him on that day.
Obi was the Governor of Anambra State for two terms of eight years.
