From Ifeoma Ejiofor
The Anambra State Commisioner for Industry, Mr Christian Udechukwu last weekend said the governor of the state, Prof Charles Soludo is passionate about building a state that will stand out in Nigeria.
Mr Udechukwu stated this during an interactive session with journalists in his Nnewi family home.
He pointed out that Gov Soludo is not distracted about who is contesting in the 2025 Anambra State governorship election but passionate about giving the state a five star governance that Ndi-Anambra would be proud of.
“Gov Soludo is intentional about the development of Anambra State, he is occasioning transformational programs and agenda that are alien to the people in the thirty two year existence of the state.
“As soon as he came on board, he employed five thousand teachers to boost teaching and learning in the state, he has also initiated process of boosting the teaching staff with another three thousand teachers. This he has supported by granting state of the art computers to the teachers.
“He backed this up with free education program for pupils from Primary 1 to JSS 3, the implication of this initiative is that pressures are intentionally removed from the shoulders of struggling patients.
“The Midas touch has been extended to health care delivery in Anambra as he employed many personnel to ensure that Ndi-Anambra live well. Again, there is free antenatal and post natal in all the government hospitals in the state.
“Work is ongoing in the model industrial park, I must not fail to let you know that the United States (US) big tech are coming to Anambra, Rail Master Plan is under way, of course the 1 Youth 2 Skills initiative of the administration of Prof Charles Soludo is intended to make Anambra youths employers of labour and not job seekers.
“The administration of the day has commenced the activation of public water scheme across the state, over four hundred kilometers roads have been constructed, Ndi-Anambra have never had it so good.
“You should also know that Anambra State today is No 7 in the whole country when it comes to ease of doing business and No 1 in South East. These are landmark achievements that should elicit excitement,” he said.
The Commisioner for Industry said all the programs and policies are carefully packaged to fulfill the ambition of Gov Soludo to build a peaceful, prosperous and liveable homeland.
