The Labour Party (LP) in Anambra State has expressed serious reservations about Governor Charles Soludo’s handling of the state’s affairs, citing insensitivity to the people’s struggles.
In a recent development, Governor Soludo announced a substantial empowerment initiative, providing N2 billion in startup grants to 5,000 Anambra youths. However, the LP contends that this move doesn’t align with the reality on the ground and accuses the governor of exacerbating poverty levels among the populace.
LP’s State Chairman, Ugochukwu Emeh, conveyed these concerns through a statement, alleging that the government diverted essential palliatives intended to alleviate the impact of fuel subsidy removal.
Emeh said; “Dr. Tony Nwoye was elected to the national Assembly by the great and good people of Anambra North senatorial District because of his unique style of leadership. He is one of the leaders in our party we are proud of. He has been vocal on state and national issues.
“The recent Statement he made at a reception held in his Honour and other members of our great party has brought fear upon Governor Soludo and Ndi APGA. In case, Prof. Soludo thinks we have forgotten, Ndi Anambra have not forgotten and what Senator Nwoye did was to remind Prof. Soludo, your betrayal and sabotage is still fresh in the minds of the people. We are proud of What Senator Victor Umeh and Senator Dr Tony Nwoye are doing in the Senate.”
