Soludo Confident of Re-Election, Says No Strong Opposition in 2025 Poll

Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has declared that he sees no formidable opposition as he seeks re-election in the November 8, 2025, governorship election.

Speaking during a media chat to mark his third anniversary in office, the former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor asserted that there is widespread consensus among Ndi Anambra that the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has delivered on its promises and deserves another term.

Soludo emphasized that while Anambra residents may support different parties in national elections, they have remained loyal to APGA at the state and local government levels.

“If there is an election—I mean, there will be an election—and if I am a candidate, I will be on the ballot. Then I ask: who else is running? Which party is fielding a candidate? So far, unless the person will come down from somewhere, I have not heard of any,” he stated.

While acknowledging calls for him to seek a second term, Soludo stressed that the final decision lies with his party and the electorate.

“The party has to agree and give me the platform. I applied for this job intentionally because I see it as my way of thanking God for His blessings—by dedicating my life to service and leaving Anambra better than I met it. If my party nominates me and my employers, the Anambra people, decide to renew my tenure, it would be a great honour and privilege,” he said.

Anambra is among the eight Nigerian states where governorship elections are held off-season due to legal battles and court rulings. Others include Bayelsa, Edo, Ekiti, Imo, Kogi, Osun, and Ondo.
