The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State has called on the Governor of the state, Charles Soludo to stop attacking critics of his administration.
The PDP spokesman in Anambra, Uloka Chibuike stated this via a statement issued on Tuesday.
Chibuike asserted that the constant verbal attacks against critics suggest that Soludo administration was “adrift and marooned”.
He insisted that Soludo must be accountable to the Anambra people, adding that the State government house is not a private business where he launched attacks from.
The PDP spokesman argued that critics are not enemies of the government but citizens who are interested in seeing positive changes in the state.
According to him, “He must be reminded that the Anambra State Government House is not his private business from which he launches attacks and throws punches at those with whom he has family or business disagreements; he must be accountable to the people of the state.
The recent attacks by the Press Secretary and other senior aides of the governor against critics of his administration, policies, and supposed accomplishments, which can only be described as minimal or next to nothing compared to what was promised, portray him as someone who is struggling, unpopular, and has no substantial scorecard.
The continuous verbal assaults against critics and commentators suggest that the current government is adrift and marooned.
Critics and commentators are not adversaries of the government, but rather, citizens who want to see the government keep their promises and make suggestions on how the government might improve.
It is unacceptable for Soludo to become defensive and resort to verbal onslaught when reminded that there is little evidence on the ground to justify his 19 months in office.”
