The National Coordinator of the newly inaugurated State and Local Government Areas Executives of Solution Vanguard, an initiative of the Anambra State Local Government Service Commission (LGSC), Honourable Azubuike Okoye, has stated that the incumbent Governor of Anambra State, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has no known opposition in the next gubernatorial election in the state.
Hon Okoye, who is Member I of the Local Government Service Commission and former President General of Agulu Community, made the observation while inaugurating the 21 Local Government Area executive members of the Solution Vanguard.
Addressing the gathering, the former member representing Anaocha I State Constituency in the Anambra State House of Assembly, enjoined the pioneer excos to drive the agenda down to their various localities, stating that they (State Exco of the LGSC) were closer to the grassroots and stood a better chance of communicating and interfacing with those at the rural areas, adding that the message was to ensure that the Solution got to all nooks and crannies of all the kindreds, villages and towns.
The ex-lawmaker pledged to bring his wealth of experience to bear in driving the agenda, emphasizing that the good work of Governor Chukwuma Soludo had made his re-election so easy and simple, saying that the developmental strides of the state’s number one citizen were there for all to see and acknowledge, assuring the Governor of their unflinching and organic support.
‘I can authoritatively tell you all here that Governor Soludo has no known opposition. They have nothing to hold against him. There is nothing to campaign with. The Governor has shut them up.
‘Anambra State is on the right trajectory. Soludo is making inroads to the hitherto no-go areas. Massive road construction, human capital development, recruitment, prompt payment of salaries, gratuities and pensions, youth and women’s empowerment. The list of his achievements cannot be overstated. Anambra is beginning to attain that A-state status. I am so proud to be onye Anambra at this very moment,’ the erstwhile legislator concluded.
