World Igbo Congress Condemns Governor Soludo

December 3, 2022 by AFRIPOL 2 Comments

Governor Soludo

The Governor of Anambra state, Prof Chukwuma Charles Soludo, has been condemned by The World Igbo Congress (WIC), a global Igbo Diasporas group for his unprovoked attack and aggression against Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party.  The group, WIC deemed his attitude towards Obi as betrayal against his kinsman. It also condemned what it said were political manipulation and deceitful measures adopted by other governors in the south east states.

In the statement issued by WIC Public Relations Officer, Hon Basil Onwukwe on Thursday reads, “Now it has become clear to Ndiigbo that Governor Chukwuma Soludo has jettisoned his mission of solving Anambra issues for a mission to rubbish the people he campaigned to serve. The Diaspora Igbo who rooted and worked for his 2021 election to become the governor of Anambra State feel betrayed by his senseless attempt to deliver the Igbo to their adversaries on a platter. 

“Diaspora Igbo who saw the emergence of Governor Soludo as a blessing for the Igbo nation, especially at this time when oneness of purpose is desired across southeastern state lines, now see otherwise.

“The overzealousness of Igbo governors to impress the Nigerian political caliphates in Abuja has destroyed Igbo political class. This dereliction of duty has caused a serious leadership vacuum in Igboland, where the politicians have become emasculated by the same political contraptions prescribing service to a horse race at the detriment of the Igbo people. 

“This spurious act from Governor Chukwuma Soludo to wreak havoc against his kinsman is what governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State did to Hon Emeka Ihedioha accusing him of rejecting the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, while as siting governor all he is doing is flaring nerves against his political opponents.

“World Igbo rejects the fooling suggestion of Governor Soludo of Anambra state to begin negotiation with his darling political frontliners. This is the height of insult to the Igbo psyche after playing second fiddle from the inception of the first republic without genuine improvement. 

 Basil Onwukwe concluded by saying, “Governor Soludo has remained frozen to mundane Nigerian politics and refused to wake up but drowning in the same ocean of confusion with his fellow political class. World Igbo Congress, in concert with all its organs and affiliates around the world vehemently condemns Governor Soludo’s shameful recommendation,”

    “Soludonization” is a 21st century Nigerian founded political concept in which envy and jealousy are practicalized in an attempt to bring down a towering political figure/opponent with the hope to rise or make gains out of it.

      I like the term you coined. Soludo is a big disappointment to the office of governorship and to every sensible Nigerian. Well his political career is over. After his first term , he will pack up and go home.
