Labour Party Supporter, Nnamdi Chude, Who Tweeted Against Soludo, APGA Arrested, Moved To Abuja, Governor Absolves Self

Police in Anambra State on Saturday arrested a suspect, Nnamdi Chude, for tweeting against Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo.

Chude, a fervent supporter of the Labour Party tweeted on Saturday, alleging that Soludo’s party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), was involved in the rigging of the House of Assembly election.

He insisted that Soludo was instrumental to the rigging, and that some thugs carted away ballot boxes. He described such action as dragging Anambra back to the era of former governor, Dr Chinwoke Mbadinuju.

Chude was later arrested in Onitsha by Police operatives and moved to the state capital, Awka.

Soludo has denied any role in the arrest of Chude, saying in a tweet: “The Commissioner of Police, Anambra State Police Command has confirmed to me, that one Mr Nnamdi Chude was arrested yesterday (18/03/23) in Anambra by the Cyber Crime Unit of Interpol and taken to Abuja today (19/03/23).

“The Anambra State Government has no information about the specific allegations or basis of his arrest.”

Meanwhile, a message by the Press Secretary to Anambra State Governor, Mr Christian Aburime, avowed that the suspect has been moved to Abuja on Sunday, and that the Governor neither had a hand in his arrest nor aware of his crime.

From results already declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Governor Soludo’s APGA won a majority of the Assembly seats in the State, followed by the Labour Party.
