Anambra State governor, Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo, on Monday released an ‘Easter message’ that many analysts view as indirect attact to the Labour Party Presidential candidate in the Nigeria’s 2023 elections, Mr Peter Obi, and his team of supporters known as ‘Obidients’. Considering the events leading to the February elections; where Prof Soludo had a spat with Peter Obi over the latter’s investments as governor in Anambra, the contents of the Easter ‘message’ leaves no one in doubt as to what Soludo referred to, when he used phrases like ‘headless mob’.
Below is the full text of Soludo’s Easter Message:
“Christ is risen, hallelujah! Our Lord brought the inconvenient truth about salvation. The headless mob mocked, condemned and crucified Him. Some 2000 years after, the truth, embodied in the risen Christ and His message of salvation and eternity, still endures.
“History teaches us and the experience of our Lord confirms that whenever strong fleeting emotions collide with the truth, emotions triumph temporarily but ultimately the truth prevails.
“May the resurrection power encourage all those with the wisdom and courage to stand up for the inconvenient truth at all times. Truth will Always prevail. In the end, no history book has ever been written in honour of the emotive critics or the headless mob.
“May Anambra and Nigeria always win. Happy Easter to us all
