The National Vice Chairman of All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, South East zone, Augustine Ehiemere has condemned the statements credited to the All Progressives Congress, APC, deputy governorship candidate in Anambra State, Uche Ekwunife, where she reportedly claimed that Governor Charles Soludo has mouth and body odour.
The APGA National Vice Chairman also dismissed the claims that Soludo’s wife committed infidelity.
In a statement he made available to journalists in Abia State on Tuesday, Ehiemere advised Ekwunife to tender an apology for allegedly insulting Governor Charles Soludo and Anambra people.
The APGA National Vice Chairman, who described the allegations as baseless blackmail to tarnish the image of the Governor, his wife and entire family, said it was surprising to hear a deputy governorship candidate releasing such words without decorum.
“Most outrageous is her baseless claim that Governor Soludo suffers from mouth and body odour.
“The APGA Southeast Zone, led by Rev. Augustine Ehiemere, demands to know how Ekwunife could have come into such intimate proximity to the Governor to make such a vile and unfounded accusation,” he said.
The party chieftain, who said that Governor Charles Soludo had recorded progress in infrastructure, economy and security, insisted that Anambra State Government House was not a place to traffic falsehood.
“The APGA Southeast Zone, under Rev. Augustine Ehiemere’s leadership, demands that Senator Ekwunife immediately issues a public apology to Governor Chukwuma Soludo, his family, and the entire people of Anambra for her malicious and unfounded attacks”, he said.
