Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has expressed appreciation to the state’s residents following his re-election. The governor’s victory secures a second term in office, with his deputy, Onyeka Ibezim, also retaining their position.
Speaking after his declaration as the winner of the governorship election, Governor Soludo stated that the renewed mandate is a significant victory and a historic moment for Anambra State. He noted that the people have sent a strong message of confidence in his administration, which he believes is a testament to the progress made during his first term.
In 2021, Governor Soludo’s initial victory was marked by low voter turnout, with 112,000 votes. However, the latest election saw a notable increase in citizen participation, with approximately 22 percent of registered voters casting their ballots. This significant increase in voter turnout is seen as a positive development for the state’s democratic process.
Governor Soludo assured the people of Anambra that his administration will intensify efforts to deliver development across the state. He emphasized that his team is committed to building on the achievements of the past four years and is eager to implement new initiatives to drive growth and progress. The governor stated that his administration is ready to work in partnership with the people to achieve greater things, saying “you have not seen anything yet.”
The governor’s re-election is seen as a vote of confidence in his administration’s policies and programs. With a renewed mandate, Governor Soludo is expected to continue implementing his vision for the state, focusing on key areas such as economic development, infrastructure, and social services. As the state looks to the future, the governor’s commitment to delivering development and improving the lives of Anambra’s residents will be closely watched.
