Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has called on the people of the state to support his government, saying he is poised to ensure good governance in the state.

Soludo made the call during a rally organised by a political support group, Solution Team Organisation, to drum support for him, which was held in Awka, the Anambra State capital, last weekend.

The governor, who was represented by the state Deputy Governor, Dr. Onyekachukwu Ibezim, said: “We call on Ndi Anambra to continue to support and promote this administration.

“Soludo was elected to simplify governance and make Anambra State the best in the country in terms of all good governance indices. With your support and prayers, he will fulfill and implement all his campaign promises, even as he has done enough within one and half years in office as the governor.

“This administration would continue to churn out policies and programmes that would better the lot of the youths, women and elderly in the state, as well as the civil servants, petty traders and artisans.”

Ibezim said Soludo administration had recently empowered over 5,000 youths through the ‘One Youth, Two Skills Solution Initiative’; employed over 5,000 teachers, employed 3,000 health workers, and also embarked on massive road construction across the state.

He assured the people that the state capital would attain its full potential under Soludo’s government, saying a lot had been done so far to give Awka a serious facelift.

The rally was organised by the Managing Director of Awka Capital Territory Development Agency (ACTDA), Hon Ossy Onuko, and Prince Obinna Ndigwe, to drum support for Soludo’s administration.

Onuko, who spoke at the rally, said the event was not an APGA event, but a rally for all supporters of Soludo, who he said cut across all political parties in the state.
