Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Charles Soludo, has stirred controversy following a viral video that allegedly shows him inviting a native doctor to the Anambra Government House to seek spiritual insight into his re-election chances.
The claim was made by a user identified as @ChuksEricE on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), who alleged that the governor brought in the traditional spiritualist to perform rituals and provide revelations regarding his political future ahead of the next election.
In the circulating video, Governor Soludo is seen holding a microphone and standing silently as the native doctor carries out rituals. Though no official statement has been released, the post claims the governor was awaiting a spiritual declaration about whether the people of Anambra would return him to office.
The video quickly gained traction online, prompting a flood of mixed reactions. While some users criticized the governor for blending politics with traditional spirituality, others defended the act, citing cultural heritage and the right to seek guidance in any form.
As the debate continues, many are now questioning the role of spiritual consultation in governance and how such actions impact public perception and trust in leadership.
