Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo has declared that the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, will win the next presidential election in his state.
The former Central Bank Governor, who spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, also wished Obi well in his presidential bid.
Recall that Soludo had criticized Obi’s presidential ambitions a few months ago, claiming that he (Obi) would not win the February election.
Soludo trashed Obi’s record as governor of Anambra State in an article that actually set the internet on fire, emphasizing that the LP candidate’s success in the state was little.
Referring to the article, Soludo said, “In that piece, I even considered that Peter Obi might win in Anambra State. I did mention that,” he said but doubted the possibility of the LP presidential candidate to win the overall election.
“I wish Peter Obi the best of luck. Let him go and compete as others.”
