I Never Met Former Gov. Mbadinuju, Says Mrs Soludo

Wife of Anambra State Governor, Dr Nonye Soludo, says she never met former gov. Chinwoke Mbadinuju, contrary to claim made in the media by a politician in the state.

Soludo made the statement while reacting to a viral video wherein Sen. Uche Ekwunife alleged that Gov. Chukwuma Soludo and his wife had been part of the administration of Mbadinuju.

Mrs Soludo said in a statement yesterday in Awka that the clarification was necessary to keep the records straight.

Ekwunife is the deputy governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the up-coming Nov.8 governorship poll in Anambra.

Mrs Soludo said: “I cannot dignify Ekwunife’s fabrications with a response. Not at all! I am too busy with my children as schools resume. Besides, I cannot condescend to replying to inanities and fabrications.

“For the records, I never met Dr Mbadinuju of blessed memory. Never. As for the other fabrications, they are pitiable and laughable”.

Ekwunife had earlier said at a public event in the state that Mrs Soludo and her husband, Chukwuma, were part of Mbadinuju’s government and lacked the moral grounds to criticise the administration.
