Presidential candidate Peter Obi of the Nigeria Democratic Congress said on Friday that he and his wife are godparents to the children of Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo.
The claim, first reported by Premium Times Nigeria, sparked immediate interest given the high‑profile nature of both political figures ahead of Nigeria’s upcoming elections.
Following Obi’s statement, a post titled “Soludo’s wife reacts to Peter Obi’s godfather claims” was published by Premium Times, indicating that Governor Soludo’s spouse has issued a response to the allegation.
While the exact content of the governor’s wife’s reaction was not detailed in the available summary, the publication of her response highlights the sensitivity of personal and familial ties in Nigerian political discourse.
Political analysts note that such personal connections are often scrutinised during campaign periods, as candidates seek to demonstrate trustworthiness and community ties to voters across the country.
