    Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) under Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo has reached an agreement to make the Christmas yuletide season exciting and memorable for the people of the state, with a fiesta themed “Onwan Dezemba.”

  • Soludo Honours Emeka Anyaoku

    Soludo Honours Emeka Anyaoku

    Governor Charles Soludo has named the road leading to the monumental edifice of the new Anambra State Government House, Emeka Anyaoku Boulevard, in honour of the erstwhile Secretary General of the Commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku.

    The Emeka Anyaoku Boulevard was part of the projects commissioned by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, together with the newly built Government House and Lodge, the building of the Deputy Governor, the Governor’s Office, 24 other structures, a world-class amphitheatre, and an auditorium.

  • Innoson and Other Structures Violating Federal Highways’ Right of Ways in Anambra Were Duly Notified Since 2024 – Anambra Government Clarifies.

    Innoson and Other Structures Violating Federal Highways’ Right of Ways in Anambra Were Duly Notified Since 2024 – Anambra Government Clarifies.

    Anambra State government has cleared the air on the misleading information regarding the Innoson Motors Showroom that was partially demolished at Nnewi, as notice of evacuation was issued since 2024 at a stakeholders meeting.

    It stated that since the inception of the Soludo administration, there has been no instance where demolition or removal of structures was undertaken without due process and consultation with critical stakeholders.

    According to the Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, on 31st of October, 2024, a notice of a stakeholders’ meeting was issued to all concerned and affected persons whose businesses and properties were on the right-of-way along the Nnewi-Ozubulu-Onitsha federal highway.

    Mefor stated that Dr. Innocent Chukwuma knows he was given notice several months ago and he spoke to several people about it more than three months ago, including a call to the Governor.  “Unfortunately, while we appreciate the high position of Innoson in the society, we cannot have a different set of rules for Innoson and another one for others,” he said.

    The said Innoson property was listed in the registration as belonging to Mrs. Eucharia Alaru and was marked as ASML/AOA/NW/L/066 for removal. This is in line with the Federal Government’s “right-of-way” which is clearly defined by the subsisting Federal Highway Act of 1971, as the ground within 45.72 metres from the centre line of any federal highway in the nation should not be occupied.

    This is a safety measure to secure and preserve human lives and ensure easy and unfettered vehicular movement.

    Mefor affirmed that this fact was pointed out to stakeholders at the meeting on the 1st of November 2024, and further communicated in the public notice signed by the Commissioner for Works subsequently.

    “While we sympathise with all affected businesses and properties along the statutory right-of-way, we must underscore that a government that has acted within the confines of the law, empathy and compassion cannot be blackmailed by any individual or group to derail the ongoing development of the state for selfish reasons,” he asserted.

    Interestingly, the Soludo administration has continued to champion the cause of indigenous enterprises in words and action, exemplified in Governor Soludo’s decision to make Innoson Vehicle Motor (IVM) his official fleet. It is on record that he is the first and still the only state governor to do so to date.

    “It is, therefore, pertinent to correct the deliberate misinformation peddled by paid content creators to discredit the good works of the state government. Their narrative is false, untrue, and at best, mischievous and a political machination of a few to score cheap, albeit selfish points,” Mefor clarified.

    He added that those paid to spread falsehood, deliberately refused to also report that properties belonging to the first National leader of APGA, Dim Ojukwu, as well as his wife and current Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Iyom Bianca Ojukwu, churches, and hundreds of others, were also demolished in the ongoing effort to rebuild Anambra.

    Mefor further remarked that making Anambra livable and prosperous requires a state governed by law and order for everyone and no exceptions for the powerful.

  • Feature: Soludo’s Town Halls and the All-Embracing Vote of Confidence

    Feature: Soludo’s Town Halls and the All-Embracing Vote of Confidence

    by Law Mefor 

    Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, CFR, is enjoying an unprecedented universal approval rating as per the coming Anambra State gubernatorial election, billed for November 8, 2025, as indicated in the responses from the Townhall meetings held in Lagos and Abuja with Ndi Anambra Communities recently, on the governor’s three-year scorecard.

    Soludo’s stellar scorecard puts him out of sight ahead of any intending contender as the vote of confidence of Ndi Anambra in Nigeria and across the globe has been guaranteed.  

    According to the Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, the prominent indigenes of Anambra state, both within and outside the state, have been reviewing Governor Soludo’s performance and have unanimously returned a resounding vote of confidence. Remarkably, the principal figures in the opposition parties are not left out in the endorsement of Governor Soludo’s re-election.

    Mefor said the former Governor of Anambra State, former Senator, and former Minister, Dr. Chris Nwabueze Ngige, was one of the bigwigs who told Soludo at the Abuja town hall meeting that he has no opposition, using the phrase “Carry go!”

    Dr. Ngige revealed that he was requested by the remaining minuscule number of APC faithful in Anambra State not to endorse Governor Soludo, but said he had gone to Anambra to see the transformation made by Soludo’s administration and was overwhelmed, stating, “I came. I saw. But I did not conquer. I confirmed. Odenigbo, carry go!”

    With Abuja and Lagos adding their voices to the endorsement galore – and that of the UK on Monday, 21st April – Governor Soludo’s re-election stays quite certain.

    Mefor, who has an overview of the perception of the people of Anambra on Governor Soludo’s government, stated that the vote of confidence from home and abroad is a clear way of saying again and again that there is no vacancy in Awka Government House. 

    Before the Lagos and Abuja town-hall meetings, where Governor Soludo went to present his scorecard to his people, pending the London town-hall meeting as well, there was an avalanche of endorsements by a wide range of organisations, from students, youths, and scores of support groups.

    Impressively, the Lagos town hall meeting came a day after the esteemed Vanguard Newspaper honoured Governor Soludo as the Vanguard Governor of the Year for Good Governance.
