The All Progressives Grand Alliance has lauded the Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, for the road rehabilitation projects he has embarked upon across the state.
A chieftain of the party and businessman, Chief Osita Ezika, while commending the governor for the inauguration of the construction of 80km road projects in Anambra, said Soludo received overwhelming support during the last governorship election because the people believed that he would deliver on his campaign promises.
Ezika, who stated these in Awka, on Thursday, also hailed the state government’s effort at tackling insecurity and achieving result in the fight against criminal elements.
He said, “People like me and many others I know that supported Soludo in the last governorship election are happy with what he is doing in Anambra State. He is not a disappointment at all and I am saying it without fear of contradiction that Soludo has justified the confidence reposed in him.
“Within a short of space of six months, he has succeeded in laying the foundation for Anambra transformation. By this time next year, the governor’s good work will be speaking for him and the good people of Anambra State will be seeing it with their two eyes.
“I am seeing Soludo as a God-sent to Anambra because most of the things he is doing are not ordinary. It’s obvious that he came in as Governor of Anambra State for a divine mission and our prayer is that the mission must be accomplished.”
Ezika welcomed the plans of the state government to link Awka Road to Trans nkisi with the construction of a connecting road that will make going to Trans nkisi GRA, Onitsha easier, saying that it will go a long way to decongest Onitsha because of the population surge at the Trans nkisi and 33 area.
He pointed out that the construction work at the Akpaka area was highly commendable as it is one of the most important roads in Onitsha, which the people have been pleading with government to do.
“One thing I discovered is that Soludo is executing projects that will touch the heart of the masses and projects that will have meaningful impact in the lives of Anambra people. All the steps being taken by the governor are in the right direction and I will urge him to keep it up because ndi Anambra voted for him to do what he is doing today.
“Also, the security situation is one main area the governor has showed the stuff he is made of. On assumption of office, insecurity raised its ugly head in Anambra State but the way he arrested the situation and succeeded in restoring normalcy in our state has restored our lost hope.”
