The Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has stated that poverty in the state doubled under Peter Obi as governor, adding that he has access to verified information which he would not like to share for the sake of modesty.
Obi, who is the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, ruled the state between 2006 and 2014, and has during his presidential campaigns and in several forums made claims of bringing humongous investments to the state.
Soludo meanwhile on Monday in a long article titled “History Beckons and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1)” seen by SaharaReporters, said Anambra doubled in poverty under Obi.
The governor was reacting to mixed feelings that trailed his earlier statement that Obi’s investments as former governor of Anambra were now worth next to nothing.
