The National Coordinator of the APGA Media Warriors Forum, Evangelist Chinedu Obigwe, has dismissed claims that businessman Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu enjoyed access to President Bola Tinubu during the latter’s recent visit to Owerri, describing such reports as “shameless propaganda.”
In a statement issued on Thursday, Obigwe accused Ukachukwu’s political camp of sponsoring a “blackmail piece” aimed at countering his earlier assertion that the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) stalwart was snubbed by the President.
According to Obigwe, contrary to reports that Ukachukwu met with the President, photographic evidence showed him seated in the second row alongside Senator Uche Ekwunife, “craning his neck like a vulture to catch a glimpse of Tinubu.” He argued that this confirmed Ukachukwu was not allowed near the President.
“I boldly told one of my friends in Ukachukwu’s drowning camp that in Anambra, Governor Soludo remains the surest path to the centre. Ukachukwu is not even known to the President and has no direct access to him,” Obigwe stated.
He stressed that President Tinubu would not sacrifice the “useful” Governor Charles Soludo, who is contributing to the realization of the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda, for a “useless Ukachukwu who adds no value.”
Citing Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State’s recent commendation of Soludo’s leadership, Obigwe described the Anambra governor as a “treasured national asset” and urged Ndi Anambra to rally behind him in the upcoming November 8 governorship election.
“It is Soludo or nothing till March 17, 2030. Four plus four equals eight. Vote for Governor Soludo on November 8 for the continuity of his good work,” he declared.
