Awuzie Defends Peter Obi Against Soludo and Umahi Criticism

Former National President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Prof. Ukachukwu Awuzie, asserted that Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo and Minister of Works Dave Umahi are not comparable to Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC). Awuzie made this statement in Owerri, Imo State, amidst criticisms directed at Obi by Soludo and Umahi.
He urged both politicians to concentrate on their governance responsibilities rather than attacking Obi's record as a former governor of Anambra. Awuzie called on Igbo leaders and the leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo to intervene and caution Soludo and Umahi against their criticisms.
He expressed disappointment over the silence of some Igbo leaders and emphasized the need for them to provide guidance during political disagreements. Awuzie expressed his support for Obi's presidential ambition, describing him as the type of leader Nigeria needs and dismissing any potential damage to Obi's reputation from criticisms by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his supporters.
