Governor Chukwuma Soludo has accused Labour Party’s presidential candidate of trying to lay landmines for him with his call that the people of Anambra should vote members of his party in the 18 March state house of assembly election.

Soludo, spoke through Mr Christian Aburime, his Press Secretary, while urging the people of Anambra to ignore the call by Obi to vote for Labour Party candidates in the House of Assembly election.

The Governor said Anambra residents of the state should instead vote for the candidates of All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA candidates for the 30 seats in the House of Assembly.

Obi, also a former Anambra Governor, had during his campaign called on candidates of the Labour party to win and support the APGA-led government.
