“We have brought out someone who will give quality representation to the people of Anambra South Senatorial district in the person of Emma Nwachukwu.
“We can recall that some Nnewi indigenes like Senators Onyeabor Obi, Ikechukwu Obiorah and late Ifeanyi Ubah were supported by others when they went to Senate to represent Anambra South. In like manner, let us support Emma Nwachukwu. We give to one section this time and another section next time to balance the political equations.
“I have not left out Nnewi in infrastructure development. We constructed some roads in Nnewi including Ezemewi, Igwe Orizu, Okpuno-Eze and St Mary Roads to ensure good road network in the industrial community.
“Many more roads are also going to be constructed very soon as well as other infrastructure development, “Soludo said.
