Anambra: Soludo witch-hunting Peter Obi – Dickson Iroegbu

A political analyst, Dickson Iroegbu, has accused Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo of witch-hunting the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, over the ongoing debt controversy.

Iroegbu made the accusation on Friday while fielding questions during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time.

Recall that the Anambra State Government had released what it described as the public debt records of Obi during his tenure as governor.

In a swift response, Obi released his handover document to counter claims by the government that his administration left behind loans and other financial liabilities.

Reacting to the development, Iroegbu said Peter Obi’s administration did not hand over directly to Soludo, stressing that all records and claims were documented.

“We know this is a political witch-hunt by Governor Chukwuma Soludo. It’s unfortunate, and we call it the crab mentality.

“It’s unfortunate, and I hope he’s going to face it when history reminds him of these events that are unfolding.

“The facts are there, and we challenge the government to stop playing to the gallery and release the documents that can be presented as evidence,” he said.
