2023: No Time For Soludo’s Distraction – Obi-Datti Campaign Organisation

By Kamsi Anayo

Obi-Datti Campaign Organization of Mr Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has said that there is no time to respond to or pay attention to Governor Charles Soludo over his diatribe.

According to the organization, the Presidential hopeful is preoccupied with convincing voters that a new Nigeria is possible through rigorous campaigns.

The LP Presidential Candidate’s team spoke on Tuesday through a spokesperson of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organisation, Ndi Kato.

The former Anambra State Governor’s team was reacting to an opinion piece by Soludo who declared that the LP candidate cannot win the 2023 presidency.

The Organisation said the governor is desperate for the limelight, a desire he is not willing to meet.

Kato explained that rather than waste energy responding to the fallacies contained in Soludo’s opinion piece, Obi remains focused on galvanizing support for the task of redeeming Nigeria from destruction.

She said, “We read with amusement and dismay, a very lengthy and belaboured treatise of an article, written by Professor Chukwuma Soludo, Governor of Anambra State, which focused on our Presidential Candidate, His Excellency Peter Obi.

“It seems obvious that Professor Soludo is itching for limelight, in this election season, perhaps fired up by possible understanding or alliance with our struggling political opponents.

“While we note the glaring fallacies, misrepresentations, personal insinuations and signs of personal vendetta in that long writeup, neither His Excellency Peter Obi, The Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organisation, nor the Labour Party, for that matter, has any interest in an extended engagement with Prof Soludo at this critical time when there is a bigger fish to fry.

“His Excellency Peter Obi has his work well cut-out for him, this campaign season.

“Primarily, he is accelerating his reach-out and influence to all Nigerians, rural and urban, in all areas, regions and states; and firmly engaging them, on his critical and visionary plans to take the country from consumption to production.

“In doing this, Mr. Peter Obi is firmly placing the Youths, intensive Agricultural revolution, and revamping of critical areas of the economy as part of the focal points in the drive to turn around our fortunes and take back our country.

“We, the Youths, spreading across partisan political lines, have found reason to place the highest level of trust and confidence in HE Peter Obi, and we are committed to continuing partnership with him, transparently, vigorously and creatively, to bring to fruition, the vital changes urgently required in this our country, of so much potential.

“We strongly believe that A New Nigeria is possible… and together with Peter Obi, we are working to make this a reality.

“This is our focus; this is our occupation.. and we shall not be distracted.”
