The National Coordinator of APGA Media Warriors’ Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, has challenged supporters of Nicholas Ukachukwu, the APC governorship candidate in Anambra State, to produce a picture of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu shaking hands with Ukachukwu during the President’s recent visit to the state.
Obigwe offered a N1 million reward for anyone who can produce such a picture.
According to Obigwe, Ukachukwu was treated like a stranger by APC governors and President Tinubu during the visit.
“Produce the picture and go home with N1 million,” he said.
Obigwe claimed that Ukachukwu’s emergence as APC candidate was facilitated by money rather than genuine support.
Speaking on a report denying any alliance between President Tinubu and Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State as allegedly issued by the Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma, Obigwe said the Imo State governor did not issue such press release.
He said the alleged statement credited to Imo State Governor was false, adding, “The person lured with money by the drowning political camp of Nicholas Ukachukwu to act as if he is speaking on behalf of Governor Hope Uzodimma is Ijeomah Arodiogbu, the Southeast Chairman of APC.”
Obigwe predicted a landslide victory for Governor Soludo, dismissing the Ukachukwu-Ekwunife ticket as worthless.
“The ticket of Nicholas Ukachukwu and Senator Uche Ekwunife can be likened to a useless Zimbabwe dollar.
“The truth is that the two of them cannot do more than a dead rat in the forthcoming November 8th governorship election.”
Obigwe maintained that Senator Ekwunife is only interested in reviving her dying political career and that she “accepted to be Ukachukwu’s running mate to also cash out from the free money Ukachukwu is throwing around.”
He added, “Anambra is in safe hands, and the good people of the state are determined to re-elect Governor Soludo for a well-deserved second term.”
“Ukachukwu is floating in the murky waters of Anambra politics and he will continue floating until after the well-deserved declaration of Governor Soludo as the winner of the November 8th governorship election,” Obigwe stated.
