Former National Chairman of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) Sen Victor Umeh has empathetically stated that nobody has ever become Govenor in Anambra state without his input since 2003.
Umeh revealed that he was involved in making, Sen Chris Ngige, Peter Obi, Willie Obiano and even the current Governor of Anambra state, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, a governor in Anambra state. He described himself as an igbo activist and an influential politician in Anambra and Southeast.
According to Umeh, he helped to install Soludo as the governor of Anambra state as a principal contributor. He maintained that Soludo is holding the office of the governor on trust to all Ndi Anambra and that anything he does in that office must be discharged with honor and nobility.
Sen Victor Umeh also mentioned that as an igbo man that he is, he will never be part of people who are calling for the re-election of president of Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In his words, the Southwest are supporting Tinubu as their brother, hence there is nothing wrong with him supporting Peter Obi as his own brother.
