Anambra: You’re a kidnapper, Soludo slams APC candidate

APGA guber candidate Professor Charles Soludo and his APC rival Andy Uba took time to hurl missiles at each other during a Nov 6 guber election debate by Arise TV on Monday.

Soludo accused Andy Uba of kidnapping a sitting governor, Chris Ngige, now a minister,during the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

He also accused Uba of forging his Senior School Examination Certificate, SSCE.

“You don’t have a Senior School Certificate Examination result. Did you obtain a Senior School Certificate Examination result Certificate in 1974, did you? It’s forgery!

“My Co-debator by my right kidnapped a sitting governor,” the CBN ex-governor said.

A suit marked no FHC/ABJ/CS/1211/2021, filed on October 8, 2021, at the Federal High Court, Abuja, says that the Form EC9 submitted by Uba to INEC was full of false information.

The Senior School Certificate Examination May/June 1974 Statement of Result purportedly issued by Union Secondary School, Awkunanaw, Enugu, Enugu State, under the Enugu State School System and allegedly bearing the name of Uba Emmanuel Nnamdi with Candidate Number 05465/089 is false.

It said that in 1974 when Uba left secondary school, the WAEC (4th respondent) did not conduct Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE).

But it wasn’t exactly true Andy kidnapped Ngige in 2003.

It was his brother Chris, Ngige’s godfather, who snatched the governor after hours of siege on the state house.
