All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Anambra State, Nicholas Ukachukwu, has said Governor Chukwuma Soludo is wasting his time banking on President Bola Tinubu’s support ahead of the 2025 election.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, Ukachukwu said Tinubu is a loyal party man who will never back a candidate outside the APC. He accused Soludo of trying to play double politics by identifying with the “progressives” while remaining in the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).

“President Tinubu is not anti-party. He is a committed APC leader who wants our party to win,” Ukachukwu said. “It’s laughable that a sitting governor would rely on another party’s leader for support instead of his own performance.”

The APC candidate said Soludo’s administration has failed to meet the expectations of Anambra residents and claimed that public dissatisfaction will be reflected at the polls.
“Anambra people should be praising him for good governance, but that’s not the case,” Ukachukwu said, adding that his grassroots campaigns draw more genuine crowds than Soludo’s rallies.

Ukachukwu also dismissed Soludo’s recent meeting with President Tinubu as political posturing. The governor had visited the president at the Presidential Villa in August, wearing a cap with Tinubu’s insignia and pledging support for his 2027 re-election bid.
According to Ukachukwu, the meeting was misrepresented as an endorsement. His campaign spokesperson, Okechukwu Modebe, described it as “the last kick of a dying horse” and a desperate attempt by Soludo to remain politically relevant.
Modebe said presenting such meetings as endorsements insults the intelligence of Anambra voters, insisting that the people are ready for change under the APC.
Meanwhile, President Tinubu has said his administration will continue to partner with all states committed to social and economic development, regardless of political affiliation.
The Anambra governorship election is scheduled to hold on November 8, 2025.
