Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate, has said he doesn’t have time to respond to or pay attention to Anambra Governor Charles Soludo, who repressed him on Monday.
Instead, he claimed that he is focused on persuading voters that a new Nigeria is feasible through aggressive advertising.
On Tuesday, he spoke via Ndi Kato, the spokeswoman for The Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organization.
Obi was responding to a lengthy essay by Soludo, who claimed that the LP candidate couldn’t win the 2023 presidential election.
He claimed that the governor yearned for attention but was unwilling to provide it to him.
Kato said that rather than wasting time refuting the lies in Soludo’s essay, Obi is still concentrating on rallying support for the effort to save Nigeria from certain doom.
“We read with amusement and dismay, a very long and embellished dissertation of an article, written by Professor Chukwuma Soludo, Governor of Anambra State, centered on our Presidential Candidate, His Excellency Peter Obi,” she said.
“It is clear that Professor Soludo is clamoring for attention during this election season, maybe stoked by the prospect of forming an alliance with our weak political rivals.

By doing this, Mr. Peter Obi is firmly emphasizing the importance of youth, an intensive agricultural revolution, and the revitalization of key economic sectors as focal points in the effort to turn around our fortunes and retake our nation.
Across partisan political lines, “We, the Youths, have found reason to place the highest level of trust and confidence in HE Peter Obi, and we are committed to continuing partnership with him, transparently, vehemently, and creatively, to bring about the vital changes urgently required in this our country, of so much potential.
“We are adamant that a New Nigeria is achievable… and we are trying to make this a reality with Peter Obi.
