Anambra State Government has expressed gratitude to Ndi Anambra for the rousing welcome given to President Bola Tinubu on his historic state visit to the State.
Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor who gave the commendation in a statement said the people of the state have, once again shown themselves to be the light of the nation.
He said the visit was executed as planned and yielded several results, which would shortly benefit the state and its citizens.
“In response to Governor Soludoโs requests on behalf of the state, among other results, the president promised to assist the state in addressing the erosion threat, reintegration into the national railway system, and restoring the state to the nation’s gas master plan.
“The president also promised to finish the federal roads linking Anambra and Kogi that were abandoned to facilitate access and shorten travel time from Anambra State to the South-South and Abuja.
“The president also used the state visit to gauge the mood of Ndi Anambra and to commission some historic projects that the Soludo administration has completed in the past three years.
“These included the brand-new Anambra Government House Mini-city, the largest in Nigeria after Aso Rock Villa, and Solution Fun City, which included a leisure park (water park and amusement park), a family fun house, and a country club.
“Along with unveiling the Our Heroes Past Monument and the Emeka Anyaoku Boulevard, the eight-lane dual highway leading to the new government building, the President also lit the Light of the Nation Tower.
“Thank you again. You have once again shown yourselves to be the light of the nation,” the statement reads.
