Anambra guber: Soludo, Ifeanyi Uba, seek Arthur Eze’s financial assistance

The cash trapped gubernatorial candidates of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Prof. Charles Soludo and the Young Progressives Party (YPP), Senator Ifeanyi Ubah in the November 6 Anambra election have ran ‘cap in hand’ to Prince Engr Arthur Eze to seek for financial support.

This is coming amid strong allies of APGA decamping to the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the election.

CAPITAL POST gathered that Soludo mobilised close friends to the Abuja residence of Prince Engr Arthur Eze to plead with him to support his ambition financially.

Prof. Soludo was accompanied by Sir Victor Umeh, some traditional rulers and APGA chieftains who coincidentally met Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah who had also come to Prince Arthur Eze’s residence to solicit for his support.

Soludo’s visit to the Anambra business mogul has shocked many as it would be recalled that the governor Willie Obiano APGA led government insulted and called Prince Engr Arthur Eze unprintable names after he led some traditional rulers on a thank you visit to President Buhari.

Some of the traditional rulers were dethroned, some suspended and Ozo Igbo Ndu was ridiculed by APGA media.

A source privy to the meeting told CAPITAL POST that Arthur Eze told Prof. Soludo to go and bring Gov. Obiano and his wife to come and tender open apology before he could listen to them, while he advised Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah to go and support Andy Ubah of the All Progressives Congress.
