Umeh Accuses Soludo of Envying Peter Obi's Legacy
Senator Victor Umeh, representing Anambra Central, accused Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo of pursuing the political records of Peter Obi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate, out of envy and hatred. Umeh made these remarks during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.
He noted that Peter Obi served as the governor of Anambra State from 2006 to 2014, while Soludo took office in 2022. Umeh highlighted that Soludo had recently launched attacks on Obi, alleging that Obi owed salaries and failed to repay loans during his tenure.
Umeh, who attended the University of Nigeria, Nsukka alongside both Obi and Soludo from 1980 to 1984, suggested that their shared academic history might have contributed to what he described as peer envy. He asserted that despite Soludo's current position, Obi remains more popular.
