Special Adviser to Governor Chukwuma Soludo on Political Matters, Dr Alex Obiogbolu, has alleged that Anambra House of Assembly Labour Party candidates are being sponsored to fight the state government when they win.
Obiogbolu, who spoke with journalists in Awka, said Anambra needs to vote for candidates of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, to avoid lawmakers who will distract the governor, when sworn in, from doing the wonderful job he has at hand.
He, however, added that the governor is not looking for a rubber stamp assembly, as he is ready to work with people of all parties, but the problem remains that the candidates running on the platform of the Labour Party, were being sponsored for ulterior motives.
“It is not that Gov Charles Soludo cannot work with lawmakers who are not of APGA; after all, the current House of Assembly is made up of PDP, APC and APGA, and we have not had any issue at all.
“Soludo is well informed and experienced that he can work with them, and don’t forget that he is a homeboy and he is not new to politics. So the issue of rubber stamp lawmakers does not come in here.
