The Anambra State Government has challenged former Governor Peter Obi to withdraw from the 2027 presidential race, accusing him of breaking key campaign promises regarding debt and timely payment of workers' salaries. The government cited a letter dated April 25, 2006, allegedly signed by Obi's then Chief of Staff, Chuks Iloegbunam, which listed the Anambra State Water Corporation's monthly salary bill and requested Obi to rectify unpaid salaries.
