The All Progressive Grand Alliance has said a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Prof. Charles Soludo, has not informed the party of his reported intention to vie for the governorship of Anambra State in 2021.

The Anambra State Chairman of APGA, Mr Nobert Obi, said this during a stakeholders’ meeting of the party at Nri in the Anaocha Local Government Area of the state.


He said as of the time he was addressing the stakeholders nobody had informed the party of Soludo’s  aspiration to contest the 2021 election.

The former CBN governor and an Onitsha-based estate surveyor and valuer/lawyer, Damian Okolo (both from the Southern senatorial zone of the state) are among those said to be nursing the 2021 governorship ambition.

Speaking at the stakeholders meeting, the APGA chairman, said party leaders only heard about the aspirations of these individuals in the media.

He said, “No single person has visited the party office to announce his or her governorship aspiration.

“People of substance are joining APGA in large numbers and it is a welcome development. We have heard of so many of them wanting to contest for governor in 2021, but nobody has told us he is contesting for anything.

“As far as APGA is concerned, they are on their own for now. Until such people come to the party secretariat to inform us of their aspiration, we do not know who is going to contest what.”

He said the leadership of APGA was at Justice Peter Umeadi’s Nri home to celebrate his one year of joining APGA, and not that the ex-Chief Judge had expressed interest in contesting any elective office.

Umeadi, who hosted over 800 women from the 326 political wards in the state, said he would vie for a public office, but did not state the office he was eyeing.

 Umeadi said “One year ago, I joined APGA. After one year of being a member of the party, I feel I should begin to build my political structure and that is why I invited women from all the 179 autonomous communities in the state to introduce myself to them as a starting point.

“I joined the party just as an individual who did not have any political structure and I know that for me to realise my political ambition, I need to build a formidable structure.”

INEC has not blown the whistle yet. What's all the fuss about?

Soludo will be a win fr Anambra but Anambra people knows better dan outsiders

Fingers crossed.... Chukwu Biko Nye anyi onye nduu...anyi achoghi onye ochichi.

Anambra steeti bu Obodo oma

Soludo Solution! It's time to unleash.
Grey matter over tall red cap.
Grey matter over grey hairs.
Grey matter over big tummy.
Grey matter over freshness.
Grey matter over elite thuggery.

MelesZenawi:
I can't believe or I find it Difficult to believe that soludo has become this Jobless.

Someone who presides over CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA for over 5 years, whatelse is he looking for in Anambra state coffers.


Apga projecting soludo is a bad and devilish idea and simply balls down to humans are insatiable.

Soludo by now should be looking towards world Bank, IMF and strong organisation like Iweala is doing but I don't understand what someone of his status is looking for petty politics if not to steal.


Soludo as Apga candidate is no different from Andy ubah or any devourer coz both are same crook of old.

Let the younger generation lead while soludo profers Advice where necessary .

More like 1999 thieves and their gangs returning.

So a man can no longer harbour the ambition to lead his people because he is over qualified?


I've always said it that you are working the script of your paymasters.

Soludo worked for years as world bank, Paris club and ing senior consultant for years when he was a lecturer before he was made economic adviser.

I would have preferred a man of his calibre immediately after obi but then again, once u enter Nigerian politics, your hand is soiled already.

That guy is one lucky chap. Thanks to Mrs Azikiwe.
