An Anambra born-business billionaire, Prince Arthur Eze, has given reasons why he is not supporting Peter Obi’s 2023 presidential ambition.
According to him, he warned Peter Obi to withdraw from the race because he can’t win adding that their is a candidate they are supporting.
Eze, disclosed this at the occasion of the 2022 Ofala festival of HRH Igwe (Dr.) Robert Eze, the traditional ruler of Ukpo in Dunukofia local government area of Anambra State.
He said,
“I warned Peter Obi to withdraw from this race but he would not listen. I told him plainly that I am not part of his plans.
“I told him to drop his ambition, and wait for next time.
“When he told me about his ambition, I asked him the states he thinks he can win in the west and in the north – he told me; but I was not convinced. I told him he cannot not win; so that he would not waste his time and money.”
Pointing at Governor Soludo, Eze, continued: “This is the person we are tipping to take over as Nigerian president of Igbo extraction in the time to come.
“We have a presidential candidate that we are supporting now. After his tenure, he will hand over to Soludo as president.”
