DNA Drama: Ekwunife Tells Mrs. Soludo,You Only Owe Your Husband Explanation
The Deputy Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State, Senator Uche Ekwunife, has issued a pointed response to Dr. Mrs. Nonye Soludo, wife of Governor Charles Soludo, regarding recent paternity claims.
In a statement released on Saturday, Senator Ekwunife advised Mrs. Soludo that explanations about the paternity of her children should be directed solely to her husband, Governor Soludo, and not to the public or political opponents.
Senator Ekwunife criticized Mrs. Soludo for attempting to publicly justify her chastity, fidelity, and virginity amid the ongoing controversy. She emphasized that such deeply personal matters are private and pertain only to her husband. “Mrs. Soludo should refrain from dragging me into her family’s private affairs,” “If the Governor has doubts regarding the paternity of his children, he should seek a DNA test himself. Mrs. Soludo should have the courage to undergo such a test to establish the truth.”Ekwunife stated.
The senator further maintained that Mrs. Soludo’s attempts to involve others in what is essentially a private family issue do not advance the conversation and only serve to politicize personal matters unnecessarily.
“Challenging me or others to prove her chastity or fidelity is baseless,” “Her explanations are owed only to her husband, and any attempt to politicize this is misplaced.”Ekwunife said.
The statement reads in full:
“Without dwelling on trivial issues that are mere diversionary to my earlier friendly advise to Mrs. Nonye Soludo to take care of the hygiene of her husband, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, it has become imperative for me to further evaluate the contents of Mrs. Soludo’s statement as a response to my advice.
In the said statement circulating online in various platforms, personally signed by the wife of the Governor, Mrs. Soludo among other claims tried so much to explain her chastity, fidelity, prove her virginity and other issues.
Without dignifying her with a response or condescending to their low mental level, I make bold to say that Mrs. Nonye Soludo doesn’t owe me all those explanations. She owes her husband those explanations and other actions that could exonerate her and prove her innocence over paternity of her children. Not me!
It is therefore my stand that Mrs. Soludo owes me no explanation over her children paternity as I am not her husband. She owes every explanations to Prof Chukwuma Soludo. Since they said only women know the father of their children. If my statement stoked out some biles in Mrs. Soludo and triggered any guilt in her conscience, she owes only her husband explanation but if it demands her taking an oath to show her innocence, she is free to do that. But Nonye Soludo should also know that ‘Ceassar’s wife should live above suspicion’
She should leave me out of her paternity crisis because challenging me to a DNA test doesn’t add up as she has only one person to prove her innocence and virginity to and that is her husband. If Soludo demands a DNA on his children, let Nonye go ahead with her full chest and do it to prove her innocence and if it warrants oath taking, she should also go ahead and do it. Why dragging me into her personal and family affairs?
I don’t have further reaction to give to Mrs. Soludo who has been a house wife and who claims to own companies both in Nigeria and abroad. There is no clear evidence of how Mrs Soludo has impacted anyone’s life before her husband rose to various positions he’s holding till date.
Without sounding proud, I want to advice Mrs. Soludo to strive harder to achieve one quarter of what I have achieved as a woman whose husband has never held any position but through God’s grace and perseverance from various agents of destruction and those who vilify others just like Mrs. Soludo and her husband, I have continued to soldier on in my quest to touch lives positively.
Finally, our resolve to save Anambra State from misrule and embarrassment is total and our will is undaunted”
