Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has denied authoring a letter addressed to the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Ugochukwu Achebe. The letter, dated September 19, 2026, and titled "The Future of Ndigbo is Bleak," criticized Governor Chukwuma Soludo's claims about liabilities allegedly incurred by Anambra State during Obi's tenure as governor. The purported document called for the state's financial records to be made available for scrutiny. Obi has recently challenged claims by the Anambra State Government that his administration left unpaid loans, maintaining that he did not leave outstanding salaries, pensions, or obligations to contractors for completed projects.
