I’m worth billions, I don’t owe, Soludo merely distracting people – Ukachukwu

I’m worth billions, I don’t owe, Soludo merely distracting people – Ukachukwu

Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress,
APC, in Anambra State, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu has dismissed allegations that
he owes one of his business partners the sum of N1 billion. Ukachukwu was last week harassed in a hotel in Abuja by the
supposed business partner. The allegation was supported by a viral video
circulated by aides of the Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo. But reacting to this on Tuesday, during the inauguration of
the APC state governorship campaign council, Ukachukwu said it was a plot by
Soludo to derail discussions away from his poor performance. He said: “I’m not here to speak things I can’t do. I’m worth
billions, I cannot owe N1 billion. The people who are telling you I owe do not
have what to say, they want to distract you because they are stealing our
money. “They are discussing me and my deputy because we are
unbeatable. If they are not discussing us, it means we are not making impact.
But because they know we are their major problem, that is why they have us on
their lips everyday. “People who are talking about us cannot sit where billionaires
sit. If you see someone who is not a billionaire and you put him to manage
billions, he will embezzle it. That is what is happening in Anambra today.” Speaking about his plans for Anambra people, the candidate
said: “I know government house is possible, we only have to have faith, but
faith without work is nonsense, so we must all work. “We have plans for Anambra State, we have things we have
mapped out. We want to introduce agro chain in Anambra. Today, we are at the
bottom line in various rankings in Nigeria. We’re number 33 in education,
governance and others. It is not me that put it there, but a well known
consulting firm, Philips Consulting. “But I have come so that we can get Anambra up again. I’m
not here to discuss people but to tell you what we will do. Anambra is an
industrial hub, it is either you are producing or you are trading. “We already have the human capital, what we just want is the
right environment. We will provide the environment for business to thrive
again. We have already agreed on how to do this and we have had consultations
about these. Cheap energy, cheap electricity and cheap labour are the things
that drive industrialization, and we will target them.” Ukachukwu’s running mate, Senator Uche Ekwunife in her
remark said: “APC has been in opposition in Anambra for a long time, this is
the time for us to come together and take the state. As for Anambra people,
this is the best time to connect to the centre, and Anambra people will be
better off for it. Mr Dozie Ikedife Jnr., was named Director General of the
Campaign Organization at the state level. He will work with other prominent
members of the party in the state. 















































State chairman of the party, Mr Basil Ejidike said the event
was only for the inauguration of the state level campaign, he stated that the
zonal, Local Government and ward council will be inaugurated subsequently.
