Prof. Charles Soludo, candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the Anambra State governorship election and former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has stated that Anambra state’s insecurity is politically motivated and that the All Progressives Congress (APC) can provide an answer to why the state is insecure.
During the Anambra State governorship discussion on Arise Television on Monday, Soludo emphasized that a group of persons have determined to import insecurity, create fear in the people, and allow voter apathy so that they may manipulate the upcoming gubernatorial election.
According to him , “Anambra State is rated as one of the safest states in the country but unfortunately the insecurity in the country started a few months ago. Some people have decided to import insecurity into Anambra State. The insecurity in Anambra State is politically motivated and the candidate of the APC can help give an answer to that issue.
Alluding to the fact that the APC should be able to provide an answer as to why there is insecurity in Anambra State, Soludo said that the people who chose to import insecurity into a state which at a point has received an award as the safest state in the country, showed that some people have chosen to ensure that there is no peace in the state and that the forthcoming election is manipulated in favour of their candidate.
The former CBN governor maintained that he has a plan of using engagement to tackle the issue of insecurity if he emerges the governor of the state.
“I will work with the local vigilante group to ensure that we have a safe state which will be a livable place for Anambra people,” he said.
