Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo has allegedly
mocked supporters of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter
Obi.
An Easter message by the governor, which was posted on his
Facebook timeline, had wished Anambra people a happy Easter celebration but
added that a headless mob killed Christ because of their emotions, which
collided with the truth embodied by Christ.
Soludo had in a piece written in November 2022 described
Obi’s supporters as a headless mob, fueling the insinuation that the use of the
words again in today’s Easter message may have been in mockery of Obi’s
supporters known as OBIdients.
The comments had fuelled anger among OBIdients who reacted
by attacking Soludo in the comment section of his post on Facebook.
The message posted by the governor on his timeline read:
“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!”
