Soludo: We Defeated Peter Obi Candidates Twice And Will Do It Again – APGA Boasts

The Anambra State Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Ifeatu Obi-Okoye, has said the chances of any opposition defeating the Governor of the state, Charles Soludo, in 2025 is slim.

Obi-Okoye stated that the party is not afraid of the Obidient movement, adding that it would fizzle out with time.

The chairman said this while speaking with journalists in his office in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

He argued that APGA has succeeded in beating the candidates sponsored by Obi and would most likely beat anyone he sponsors in 2025.

He said, “By Labour candidate you mean Valentine Ozigbo, is it not? Unfortunately, that name has become synonymous with losing elections. If he contests, he will be contesting against his homeboy from Aguata (Soludo).

“So, I can say the ObIdient man (Obi), APGA has beaten him twice. We beat him when he brought a man from Ogbaru, Oseloka Obaze, and we beat him again when he brought Val Ozigbo.

“What happened in the last Obidient Movement is a lesson to Igbo and should not repeat itself. It was like what happened in 1967 when we went to war with Nigeria without preparation. It is not likely to happen to Ndigbo again.

“There will be no Obidient movement in the Anambra governorship election because that movement was tied around an emotion to become president of Nigeria. It had nothing to do with Peter Obi as a person.”
