Can Soludo still lose governorship poll? Here are possible reasons
Legit.ng had reported that to many election observers, former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor and candidate of the of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the ongoing Anambra state governorship election, Professor Charles Soludo is the next governor of Anambra state.
This conclusion will be premised on the fact that he has the highest votes in the election, having secure victory in 18 of the 20 LGAs where election held.
He secured 103,946 votes, followed by Valentine Ozigbo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who got 51,322 votes, while Andy Uba, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), had 42,942.
With this, the margin between Soludo and Ozigbo currently stands at 52,624. But the tide can still swing against the former CBN governor.. Though it will be difficult, but this is politics, it is still possible.
