By CHARLES IWUOHA
The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Anambra State, Charles Soludo, has accused his opponent the All Progressives Congress (APC), Andy Uba, of kidnapping and forgery.
The two clashed during the Anambra Gubernatorial Debate organised by Arise TV on Monday.
Soludo, a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), accused Andy of kidnapping a sitting governor and forging his Senior Secondary School Certificate.
Speaking to Uba, he said: “You don’t have a Senior School Certificate Examination result. Did you obtain a Senior School Certificate Examination result in 1974, did you? It’s forgery!
Ubah recently appeared in court over the school certificate he allegedly submitted for the election. The court documents stated that the Form EC9 he submitted to INEC was full of false information.
“The year Uba claims he sat for the exams, 1974, the West African Examinations Council, who was listed in the suit, did not conduct the SSCE.
“My co-debator (Andy Uba( by my right kidnapped a sitting governor.”
The Anambra Governorship election is scheduled to hold on Saturday, November 6, 2021. The debate featured the three leading candidates representing the APC, APGA, and the PDP.
