“My wife and I are godparents to Soludo’s children, we are close” – Peter Obi

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) has made it clear that he is not quarrelling with Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo. 

Obi disclosed this on Friday, September 25, while addressing the Nigerian Guild of Editors on the controversy surrounding claims by the Soludo administration that his government left debts in Anambra State. 

Obi said he and Soludo would still embrace each other whenever they meet and there is no animosity between them. 

He also insisted that he left no debt for the state. He said that he was the only governor who saved about $150 million during his tenure. 

The former Anambra State governor said, “I and my wife are godparents to Soludo’s children. We are that close, so we are not quarrelling and we will never quarrel. 

“If I see him any day, I will hug him. If they say anything I will answer them and like I said yesterday, I did not leave debt in Anambra State. 

“Thank God Otti confirmed this morning during an interview on Arise TV. I left 150 million dollars in savings. No other governor has left dollars. If you see one, tell me.”
