He said, “I and my wife are godparents to Soludo’s children. We are that close. so we are not quarrelling and we will never quarrel.
“If I see him any day, I will hug him. If they say anything I will answer them and like I said yesterday, I did not leave debt in Anambra State.
“Thank God Otti confirmed this morning during an interview on Arise TV. I left 150 million dollars in savings. No other governor has left dollars. If you see one, tell me.”
