Prof Charles Soludo of Anambra State has described reports that he was paid $28m to blackmail the presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP)Peter Obi as a ‘mere trash’.
The comment was contained in a statement by his Press Secretary Mr. Christian Aburime who said that the report is a hatchet job by those who want to distract the governor.
Recall that a report captioned “Gov. Charles Soludo Exposed: How the Governor Received $28 million Cash to Pull Down His Brother, Peter Obi”, has been attracting so much comments in and outside Anambra State.
The job, according to the report, was to deflate and damage Obi’s reputation in his home state, as well as send the Obidient Movement out of the social media space and silence them forever.
“It was a failed attempt from mischief makers and faceless hatchet jobbers who are bent on distracting Soludo’s government and damaging his reputation, Aburime said.
Stating that the governor remains focused in discharging his electoral mandate to the people of Anambra State, Aburime advised the members of the public to disregard the report as a ‘mere trash’.
