Soludo Backs Tinubu's Re-election, Warns Anambra Voters

Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo has publicly supported President Bola Tinubu's re-election bid ahead of the 2027 general elections, mocking Tinubu's opponents. Soludo warned that rejecting Tinubu could hinder Anambra's development and its ability to secure federal support for crucial infrastructure projects.

Speaking in Igbo to his supporters, he cautioned voters against supporting opposition candidates, stating that such actions could lead to dire consequences for the state. Soludo highlighted the need for federal intervention to address severe erosion issues in Anambra, which he claimed exceed the state government's capacity to manage.

He used an analogy of a strong man to illustrate the difficulty of opposing Tinubu now that he is president. Additionally, Soludo pointed out proposed federal road projects aimed at improving connectivity in Anambra, including a dual-carriageway superhighway linking various communities, emphasizing that these projects require federal government execution.
