The Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, has told Professor Chukwuma Soludo that he will not do second tenure as governor of Anambra State, claiming that Anambra people are already shopping for his replacement.
Ubah, who spoke through his media aide Chuks Kamen, described Soludo’s leadership in the state as lackluster, adding that there are no projects to point at in his nearly two years in office.
Ubah, who recently dumped his Young Progressives Party, YPP, and defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC is being rumoured to be nursing governorship ambition in his new party.
He said: “It has become a thing of great concern to every reasonable Anambrarian that our dear Professor and one-term Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) cannot point to one completed road project almost two years into his tenure."
"Soludo has not made any tangible attempt to curb the growing disenchantment with his governance style by introducing any groundbreaking reform(s)."
"He has not made any concrete effort aimed at changing the existential quagmire that Anambra represents which renders the popular question by a former Governor of the State, Mr Peter Obi, still relevant and unanswered till date, which is: “Is Anambra cursed, or are we the cause?"
“Secondly, Professor Soludo is a governor who came into office riding on the back of huge expectations from Ndi Anambra and Nigerians in general, but the question is, has that transformed into any tangible results and which one of his electoral promises has he fulfilled almost two years into his tenure, including the promise of conducting local government elections within six months of swearing in."
“The Professor must have realized that he currently holds the record of being the first democratically elected Governor of Anambra whose would-be successor is already being actively discussed in almost every gathering in Anambra less than two years into his tenure."
"This is the clearest exhibition that the people are already in search of a replacement, having realized their error so soon in the day."
