On November 7th 2025, a Facebook page, APGA Interactive Forum (AIF Media), made a claim that Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo, has “emptied the state’s purse” and released ₦100 million to Nnewi North Local Government Area to buy votes ahead of the upcoming election. The post further alleges that the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) plans to offer ₦50,000 for each vote, asserting that no amount of vote buying will save the Governor from being voted out.

Claim: Did Soludo empty Anambra’s purse to buy votes for APGA?
Verification: The CDD War Room investigated the viral claim by analysing reports from credible news platforms and independent sources. However, there is no credible or verifiable evidence indicating that Governor Soludo or APGA disbursed ₦100 million to Nnewi North for vote buying.
Verdict: No Evidence
