APGA Media Forum coordinator commends Chinedu Nwoye for total loyalty to Soludo
Evang Chinedu Obigwe, the National Coordinator of APGA Media Warriors Forum, has commended the Deputy Chief of Staff to Governor Chukwuma Soludo, Hon. Chinedu Nwoye, who doubles as the Chief Protocol Officer to the Anambra State Government, for his total loyalty and commitment to the success of Prof. Soludo and his administration.
He made the commendation through a statement titled- “It’s childish and laughable for anybody to say that Glamour hijacked Governor Soludo,” which was sent to Nationwide Reports on Monday.
He wrote- “When I came across a blackmail piece and a voice note attached to the blackmail piece being circulated online against Glamour, I said to myself that those behind it are jokers.
“It is only someone that does not know Governor Soludo that will say that he has been hijacked.
“The Prof Soludo that we all know cannot be hijacked by anybody because he is independent minded.
“The idiot behind the circulation of the blackmail piece and the voice note attached to it is Chidi Okoye.
“What they want to achieve is to poison Governor Soludo mind and strain his relationship with Glamour.
“Chidi Okoye parades himself as the founder of Soludo Support Group but that is not true.
“The founder of SSG is Chinedu Nwoye and he appointed Chidi Okoye as Anambra chapter coordinator in 2019.
“But today, the chronic diarrhoea of the mouth ailment stricken Chidi Okoye is claiming that he founded SSG.
“The impatient fool at forty that will remain a fool forever is now among the promoters of ikemba front and he is parading himself as the founder of ikemba front.
“The truth is that the said Chidi Okoye does not have character.
“I even discovered that he did not refund the money given to him as the coordinator of Anambra chapter of SSG because he claimed as at the time they demanded the refund of the money that he has AMCON problem.
“Chidi Okoye was sacked in 2020 from SSG because of his insatiable appetite for greed.
“To God be the glory that SSG is still waxing strong under the leadership of Glamour.
“What Chidi Okoye and his cohorts are labouring in vain to achieve is to poison Governor Soludo mind against Glamour that can best be referred to as his beloved political Son but they failed woefully.
“Governor Soludo is not a stranger in Nigeria and those that know him will laugh at the foolish claim that he was hijacked by Glamour.
“Truly, this is a childish and senseless blackmail.
“Nobody in Anambra State can claim that he is in charge of Governor Soludo government because the Governor is firmly in charge of his government.
“There is nothing bad in Glamour doing his best to secure political appointments for members of SSG because they worked for it.
“The Governor Soludo that we know rewards loyalty and that was what he did for members of SSG.
“I agree completely with news band publication captioned Soludo has not abandoned ndi support groups.
“But Ogazi and his cohorts in a desperate attempt to blackmail Glamour made a foolish attempt to twist the report.
“Facts are sacred and cannot be buried.
Ogazi was sacked from SSG because of embezzlement of fund hence my reason for saying that he is a rotten character.
“Chidi Okoye is a complete wolf in sheep clothing but am confident that the outcome of the 2025 governorship election will cut him to size politically and otherwise.
“The poisonous game of Chidi Okoye and his cohorts against Glamour is dead on arrival because Glamour loyalty to Governor Soludo is second to none and nobody can use childish blackmail to strain the political Father and Son relationship the both of them are enjoying together.
“Daalu nu.

The legal team of suspended Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, say they are ready with factil evidence to defend her in court.
The team received a formal summons in the case filed against her by the Federal Government at the Federal Capital Territory High Court last week.
On Friday, May 16, 2025, the Federal Government filed the suit, marked CR/297/25, over alleged defamatory remarks made during a live appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today on April 3, 2025.
The government accused the senator of “making imputation knowing or having reason to believe that such imputation will harm the reputation of a person”, citing Section 391 of the Penal Code, cap 89, Laws of the Federation, 1990.
Among the witnesses listed to testify during the trial were Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and a former governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello.
Others include Asuquo Ekpenyong, a senator; Sandra Duru; Maya Iliya, investigating police officers; and Abdulhafiz Garba, investigating police officers.
However, in a statement issued Friday night by Dr. Ehiogie West-Idahosa (SAN) on behalf of the legal team, Akpoti-Uduaghan’s lawyers confirmed receipt of the formal summons and pledged to prepare all “factual and statutory defences” available to the lawmaker during trial.
“At about 2:30pm on Friday, May 23, 2025, within the premises of the Federal Capital Territory High Court, Abuja, we received the information filed by the Director of Public Prosecutions, containing three counts alleging that our client, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central, made imputations she had reason to believe would harm the reputation of Senator Godswill Akpabio, President of the 10th Senate,” the statement read.
“We received the said information on her behalf through a letter of authority duly issued and filed in the court’s registry.
“The legal team will fully prepare and present all factual and statutory defences available to our client during the trial.”
The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) will on Tuesday next week begin the take over of 4,794 properties in Abuja, including the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) headquarters, due to unpaid ground rent.
The PDP headquarters, currently under construction in Abuja’s Central Business District, is among the affected properties, having been revoked in March for several years of unpaid ground rent. The FCTA disclosed that 4,794 titles had been revoked for failure to pay ground rent, with some defaults dating back 43 years.
The affected properties are located in various districts, including Central Area, Garki I and II, Wuse I and II, Asokoro, Maitama, and Guzape.
The defaulters owe over N6.96 billion in ground rent. The FCTA had given a 21-day grace period for owners with debts under 10 years, which has now expired.
The FCTA officials announced that the takeover would begin on Monday, May 26, 2025, with the sealing off and restriction of access to the affected properties.
The Director of Land Administration, Chijioke Nwankwoeze emphasized that the revocations were carried out under Section 28(5)(a)(b) of the Land Use Act, which empowers the government to reclaim land when the terms of occupancy are violated.
Two people sustained serious injuries when a training aircraft crash-landed at the Ilorin International Airport on Friday.
Director of Public Affairs and Family Assistance, NSIB, Mrs Bimbo Oladeji, who disclosed this in a statement, said the incident occurred at 17:28 local time on May 23, 2025, during a simulated instrument approach on Runway 05 at Ilorin International Airport.
Oladeji said the aircraft veered off the runway and came to a stop on the grass verge, leaving the two occupants on board injured.
She stated: “Both sustained serious injuries and were swiftly evacuated to a medical facility, coordinated by the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency, NAMA.
“In response, the NSIB Go-Team is currently preparing to depart from Abuja to Ilorin to conduct on-site investigations. The team will secure the site, collect physical evidence, interview witnesses, and retrieve operational data to establish the cause and contributing factors of the incident.”
Quoting the Director General of the NSIB, Captain Alex Badeh Jr., she said “Our thoughts are with the injured, and we commend the swift medical and emergency response. Now, our focus is on understanding exactly what went wrong. Every investigation is an opportunity to improve safety. We are deploying our team to Ilorin to ensure that no detail is overlooked.”
