Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s son, Ozonna Soludo has insisted that he is in support of Peter Obi in the 2023 presidential campaign. Ozonna Soludo in a social media post said he does not want to be dragged into politics but prefers Peter Obi to other candidates.
Chukwuma Soludo, governor of Anambra, the home state of Peter Obi, unleashed an attack on Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party with a lengthy write-up released on Monday against the Labour Party candidate. As it continues to reverberate, Ozonna Soludo has differed with his father’s stance, saying Obi is the best candidate.
The 28-year-old UK-based artiste disclosed this in a comment in a social media post in response to a social media post criticizing his father for opposing Obi’s presidential ambition.
Ozonna wrote “I am not an extension of anybody. I have my own opinions and have always said I think Peter is the best candidate. All this has nothing to do with me”.
Brandpowerng recalls that Governor Soludo dug deep to give many reasons why Peter Obi would not win the presidential election in 2023.
Governor Soludo continued to criticise Obi’s claim of making huge savings for Anambra State during his tenure insisting that governments exist to save lives and not to save money.
Ozonna said Peter Obi is the best candidate despite his father’s stance. Indeed, only on November 13, a day before his father’s post Ozonna made the post below where he declared that he stands with Peter Obi. The post reads: There is dignity in labour. I stand with Peter Obi.
Gov. Soludo had said: Let’s be clear: Peter Obi knows that he can’t and won’t win. 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! That many Americans may not like the fact that Joe Biden (79 years) and Donald Trump (76 years) are two frontrunners for president in their parties does not remove the fact that if both of them emerge as candidates, definitely one of them will be president in 2024.
