The Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu, has led a delegation of some leaders of Nnewi Community on a thank you visit to the Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo.
It was gathered that the visit was at the Governor’s Lodge in Amawbia on Sunday afternoon, June 1, to thank the Governor for the role he played in her appointment as a Minister.
Governor Soludo who disclosed the visit in a post on social media, said he was
delighted that the wife of the eternal leader of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), the late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, had quickly adapted to the role.
Soludo said: ‘Yesterday, I received a courtesy visit from the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu, accompanied by a delegation of respected Nnewi indigenes.
‘They came to express their gratitude for my continued support, particularly during her nomination as Minister in the Renewed Hope Administration. I
am delighted to see her thrive in this role.’
Soludo added that the appointment of Mrs Ojukwu as Minister was a testament of President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to a unified Nigeria, and valuing competence over party.
He said: ‘Ambassador Bianca’s appointment is a testament to President Tinubu’s commitment to a unified Nigeria, where merit and capability transcend party lines. She is a round peg on a round hole, and I am confident she will make a significant impact.’
