Governor of Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo has accused members of the opposition party of using both old and doctored videos to blackmail him.

This is coming on the heels of two viral videos currently trending on the internet, where some youths, led by the former commissioner, Christian Madubuko made derogatory comments against the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).

Another video was where Soludo was purported to have said that he will not work with lawmakers from other political parties.

Soludo who spoke through his media aide, Christian Aburime said that members of the opposition have gone to high lengths to cause disaffection between Governor Soludo and the people of Anambra State, saying that they will not succeed.

He insisted that Anambra is an APGA state, and the people are happy with the performance of the governor so far, noting that they are ready to vote for APGA candidates in the forthcoming election.

Responding to the first video, Aburime described it as old, even as he revealed that the video was made during the regime of the former administration when he had issues with the administration.

Concerning the second video, he said: “That video is heavily ‘doctored’ by members of the opposition party, just to spite the governor.

“The video is old. It was made to spite the last administration then and was not against the APGA led by Soludo.” 

“Right now, the same Madubuko is a part of our government, and has even made a press release clarifying that the video was not made under the Soludo government and that he supports the Soludo government.”

“Everyone knows that the governor is a pure democrat. He is ready to work with any member of the House of Assembly, even if they are elected from other political parties, so that is not true.

“Members of the opposition have gone to high lengths to cause disaffection between Governor Soludo and the people of Anambra State, but they will not succeed.

“Anambra is APGA State, and the people are happy with the performance of the governor so far, and they are ready to vote for APGA candidates in the forthcoming election'”, Aburime added.
