Okorie Accuses Soludo of Attacking Obi Under Tinubu's Support
Chief Chekwas Okorie, the founder of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), accused Anambra State Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo of using his support for President Tinubu as a guise to target former Anambra governor and 2027 presidential candidate Mr. Peter Obi. In a statement issued in Abuja, Okorie expressed concern over Soludo's ongoing criticism of Obi, asserting that Soludo's backing of Tinubu was a cover for a personal vendetta against Obi.
Okorie noted that despite Soludo's attacks, Obi has remained respectful towards him. He traced the strained relationship between the two politicians to events over a decade, including the 2009 Anambra governorship election where Obi defeated Soludo, and Soludo's disqualification from the APGA primary in 2013.
Okorie also referenced the political fallout from the 2023 general election, particularly concerning the APGA senatorial primary for Anambra Central.
