President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo on his re-election as Governor of Anambra State. He recently described the outcome as a resounding endorsement of his leadership and achievements over the past four years.
In a press statement issued hours ago, President Tinubu revealed that Soludo’s overwhelming victory in Saturday’s poll makes him the third governor in Anambra’s political history to secure a second term in office.
According to him, he can only commend the people of Anambra State, security agencies and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for a peaceful and successful conduct of the election.
He stated that Anambra State has been living up to its motto as the light of the nation with Soludo as governor.
“I congratulate Professor Chukwuma Soludo on his re-election as the governor of Anambra State. The overwhelming victory he recorded in Saturday’s poll has now made him the third governor in the state’s political history to win a second term.
Governor Soludo has demonstrated that knowledge is power and that academic principles can be applied in serving the people. Under him, Anambra is living up to its motto as the Light of the Nation,” he said.
Reflecting on his visit to Anambra in May, during which he inaugurated several projects executed by the Soludo administration, President Tinubu noted that the projects were proof of Soludo’s good thinking and purposeful leadership.
BAT concluded by urging the Anambra State governor to be magnanimous in victory, stressing that he should extend a hand of cooperation to his opponents in the just-concluded election.
“I assure Governor Soludo of my unwavering support, and I look forward to continued collaboration between Anambra and the Federal Government,” he added.
