The Anambra State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) says that Governor Charles Soludo is lying to President Bola Tinubu.
Soludo, the head of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Nigeria, has publicly backed Tinubu, saying that “progressives are working together.”
Senator Emma Anosike, the APC state chairman, said at a press conference on Friday that Soludo’s claims that his administration is working with Tinubu are not true.
He said that Soludo was lying to the President so that he could keep getting favors from him at the federal level while still working against the APC in the state.
Anosike said that Soludo has not made the APC feel like they are part of his government or given them any breathing room. Instead, he “goes about to claim that he’s working with Tinubu” and his party, the APC.
The APC chairman spoke to reporters right after the newly elected state officers of the party were sworn in. He told party members to get ready for the 2027 general elections and that he would give them all the help they need to win.
“If we’re going to work together, you have to work for Mr. President. So we need to send our first 11 to the National Assembly to help Mr. President.
“If you are working with Mr. President, you can’t come to the National Assembly with a different party.” The party leader said, “If you think you’re working together, let your progressives (APGA members) join APC, run for office in APC, and win.”
Anosike also told Soludo to officially join the APC to back up his claims that he was working with President Tinubu. This made it clear that his government would not allow things to go on as usual.
