CONTROVERSY TRAILS SOLUDO OVER ALLEGED 1 MILLION VOTER PROMISE

Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, has found himself at the center of public scrutiny following reports that he allegedly promised to give 1 million each to voters — a statement that has sparked widespread debate and criticism across the state.

The alleged remark, which reportedly surfaced during a political engagement, quickly spread across social media platforms, drawing mixed reactions from citizens and political observers.

While some dismissed the claim as another wave of political propaganda, others expressed disappointment, insisting that such promises, if true, undermine the integrity of leadership and responsible governance.

Critics accused the governor of employing populist tactics to curry favor with the electorate, describing the alleged promise as both “impractical and misleading.”

Many questioned the financial basis of such a commitment, pointing to the state’s ongoing developmental projects and economic realities.

“This is not the Soludo we thought we voted for,” a concerned resident lamented. “Anambra needs sustainable progress, not populist promises. ₦1 million per voter is neither realistic nor responsible.”

On the other hand, supporters of the governor maintain that the reports have been blown out of proportion, claiming that his words were misinterpreted or deliberately twisted by opponents ahead of the political season.

They insist that Soludo remains focused on transforming Anambra through education, technology, infrastructure, and job creation.

As of the time of this report, the Anambra State Government has not issued an official statement regarding the controversy. Political analysts, however, believe the administration’s silence may be strategic — allowing emotions to settle before making a formal clarification.

Regardless of the truth behind the alleged statement, the unfolding saga has reignited conversations about the ethics of political promises in Nigeria and the growing influence of social media in shaping public perception.
