Soludo now stands alongside other contenders Paul Chukwuma of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), George Moghalu of the Labour Party, Jeff Nweke of Action Alliance (AA), and John Nwosu of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) who had already met the same requirement.
Eleven other aspirants are still yet to meet the ANSAA condition.
The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), under which Soludo is seeking re-election, obtained the permit through Dr. Alex Obiogbolu, Special Adviser to the Governor on Political Matters. Obiogbolu submitted a bank draft at the ANSAA office to secure the permit on Soludo’s behalf.
Tony Ujubuonu, Managing Director of ANSAA, issued the permit and acknowledged APGA’s compliance.
