Governor Charles Soludo has taken down some of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi’s bill boards in Anambra State.
It was gathered that the action was carried out over the alleged inability of Obi to pay the State Government.
The bill boards which were mounted in strategic positions in some areas were removed by the Anambra Signage and Advertising Agency (ANSAA) during the weekend.
However, LP accused Governor Charles Soludo of ordering removal of the bill boards for ulterior motives. .
The Nation reports that a chieftain of the party, who does not want to be quoted, stated that Obi and Umeh’s large billboard at the Unizik temporary Site Flyover were pulled down on Saturday by ANSAA.
His words were; “The billboard at UNIZIK Temporary Site Junction was today( Saturday ) removed on the orders of Soludo. “The advert which was placed by an APCON registered Advertising Agency was fully paid for.
“Soludo said that he does not want Labour Party advert on such a strategic place and ordered the Anambra Signage Agency to refund the money it received for the advert”.
The chieftain added that;“He also ordered the removal of the Labour Party advert at the Afor Nnobi Gantry. This advert has been there since October, 2022 and was paid for five months”.
