In obvious face saving step, the Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo has warned distractors in the state that nothing must happen to Mr Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, reports ITREALMS.Soludo through his Senior Special Assistant on New Media Mazi Ejimofor Opara alleged that a devious propaganda unbefitting of the Anambra political philosophy is currently been peddled by some faceless fifth columnists who are hell bent on returning Anambra to political Egypt.
He said that Gov. Soludo at various public functions, including on National television has maintained that it is only in Anambra that you find political rivals who make use of all non violent tools at campaigns and elections to canvass and win votes, then meet the following weekend at either burials or wedding functions to eat, drink and exchange banters.
The faceless propagandists, Opara also said have quickly forgotten that Soludo and Peter are brothers.
"And it was in the light of this brotherhood that Gov. Soludo allowed Mr Peter Obi the use of the Anambra State government house facility for consultations in spite of their manifest political differences," he said.
The Governor equally cautioned "If there are forces scheming to hurt, harm or inflict the slightest of bodily harm on Mr. Peter Obi, they must be reminded that in Anambra our political differences do not come in the way of our brotherhood.
"As such, they must now understand that we do not take threats to life, however subtle, lightly."
Further, Opara pointed out that Ndi Anambra under the leadership of Gov. Soludo will not condone any such threat on any onye Anambra, much more an illustrious son in the mould of Peter Obi.
In addition, he noted that in this era of fake news, misinformation and disinformation, it is important online users, adhere to the rudiments of fact-checking every information stumble upon on this space.
"Say no to fake news of any kind," he declared.
