The Anambra State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has claimed that Governor Charles Soludo is deceiving President Bola Tinubu.
CityNews reports that Soludo, the national leader of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has openly shown his support for Tinubu, claiming that “progressives are working together.”
However, speaking at a press conference on Friday, the APC state chairman, Senator Emma Anosike, discredited Soludo’s frequent claims that his administration is working with Tinubu.
He alleged that Soludo was deceiving the President to continue receiving favours from him at the federal level, while he continues to work against the APC in the state.
Anosike said that Soludo has neither given the APC any sense of belonging in his government nor allowed it a breathing space, yet “goes about to claim that he’s working with Tinubu” and his party, the APC.
The APC chairman, who addressed journalists shortly after the inauguration of the newly elected state officers of the party, told the party members to prepare for the 2027 general elections as he’s prepared to give them every necessary support they may require to win.
“If we are working together, you must work for Mr. President. So we must send our first 11 to the National Assembly to work with Mr. President.
“If you are working with Mr President,, you cannot come to the National Assembly with a different party. So, if you feel that you’re working together, that progressives are working together, let those your progressives (APGA members) join APC, contest elections in APC and win,” the party leader said.
Anosike also told Soludo to officially join the APC to substantiate his claims of working with President Tinubu, making it clear that his administration would not tolerate business as usual.
