Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra state says any politician pledging to serve only one term in office needs to undergo a psychiatric examination.
The governor spoke on Saturday during a rally held in Anambra South in support of his second-term ambition.
Soludo questioned the logic behind such a promise, insisting that the Nigerian Constitution allows elected public officials to serve two terms, not just one.
“How can anybody with a functioning brain say that? Do you think you’re speaking to fools? You come before people and declare, ‘I will only serve one term.’
“Any politician who says that should be taken to a psychiatric hospital. Something must be wrong with the person,” Soludo said.
This is coming a month after former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, said he is willing to accept a one-term presidency in the spirit of equity and zoning if such a condition is required in the event of a coalition agreement ahead of the 2027 elections.
Speaking during a live X Space conversation with his supporters, Obi affirmed that while he is actively involved in coalition talks with like-minded Nigerians, he is not engaged in any discussions on joint tickets, including with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
“I have not joined in any form of discussion on joint tickets, including with Atiku,” he said. “If there is any form of agreement that will restrict me to four years in office, I will comply with the agreement and be ready to leave office on the 28th of May, 2031—not the 29th, but the 28th.”
