Guber Poll: Anambra Communities Donate N50 Million to Support Soludo’s 2nd Term Bid

By Praise Chinecherem

Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State has reiterated his commitment to the comprehensive development of the state.

The governor made the declaration during an endorsement rally by Oba and Obosi communities, located in Idemili North and South local government areas, respectively.

Responding to a request from Oba youths for the release of Akwa Ọkụkọ Tiwara Akị Soludo clarified that the legal process is underway and cannot be interrupted until resolved in court.

He highlighted the negative impact of eroded values on society, particularly on the youth, and emphasized the importance of social and value reorientation.

“We must support our culture and tradition, which emphasize truth, justice, and hard work rather than pursuit of wealth through magical means,” he stated.

According to the governor, alongside infrastructural development in education, health, and youth initiatives, there is a critical need for a societal rebirth focused on values.

Reflecting on the state’s progress, he pointed out that areas once plagued by violence and chaos are now returning to normalcy. In this coming election, the future of Anambra is on the ballot.

“When we first came into office, eight local government areas were impassable. People were being murdered randomly. It was a state of anarchy and almost a war situation.

“But today, places such as Mbosi, Osumorghu, Lilu, Iseke are now gradually returning back to normal. That is how we must retrieve all parts of Igbo land,” he added.

The Governor expressed gratitude to the communities for organizing the rally and congratulated the newly selected traditional ruler.

Community leaders, including Chairmen of Idemili North and South and the President General of the Oba Patriotic Union, praised Soludo and the visible advancements made under his administration.

They pledged their unwavering support for Soludo’s re-election on November 8, 2025, just as they presented him with a cheque of 50 million support.

The Governor was accompanied by his Deputy, Dr. Onyekachukwu Ibezim and other top government functionaries.
