The Deputy Speaker, Anambra State House of Assembly, Mr Paschal Agbodike says Governor Willie Obiano’s pronouncement that the next governor of Anambra state will come from Anambra South has cleared doubts among those that were skeptical on which zone his successor will come from.


Mr Agbodike who spoke to the ABS at Ihiala during the  Anambra South Traditional Rulers Retreat,  commended the Governor for making the bold statement and pointed out that the most important thing is for the person who will succeed the Governor to carry on with the
development of the state.


He lauded the traditional rulers for organizing the retreat and expressed the hope that it will usher in more development at the grassroot.


In their separate remarks, Barrister Ifeanyi Muoma representing Ihiala
Federal Constituency and Chief Okwudili Ezenwankwo representing Orumba
North and South Federal Constituency stated that the traditional rulers have the onerous responsibility on their shoulders in the development of their communities, urging them to form a formidable force that will bring positive change.


Lending his voice, Mr Chidi Udemmadu representing Ihiala one constituency in the state Assembly, remarked that the traditional rulers have come out to set a standard that will last for generations
and urged them to live up to expectations for the collective welfare  of their subjects.
