Nigeria: Soludo Confirms Peter Obi's Wife As Child's Godmother
- In a Monday interview with BBC News Igbo, Anambra State Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo confirmed that he and Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi remain close friends despite their political differences.
- "We are close friends, and our families are also very close," Soludo said, explaining that Obi's wife is his daughter's baptismal godmother while his wife, Nonye, is the confirmation godmother to Obi's daughter.
- Political differences centered on leadership visions for Anambra State when Soludo prevailed in the 2021 election over Obi's preferred candidate, yet Soludo emphasized he holds no personal animosity despite the disagreement.
- Regarding the 2027 election, Soludo suggested that Obi faces significant hurdles against incumbent President Bola Tinubu, stating, "Even if he has united opposition, it does not guarantee that he will defeat an incumbent."
- The governor emphasized that Obi's lack of national political structure and limited voting strength in the South-east region remain primary obstacles for defeating an incumbent president, standing by his 2022 predictions.
