The Speaker Anambra State House of Assembly, Right Honourable Uche Okafor says Governor Chukwuma Soludo has made history by being the first Governor in Nigeria to embark on massive employment of the citizenry in less than one year in office.

 

In his Congratulatory Message to Governor Soludo on behalf of the State Legislature as he marks one year in office, Right Honourable Okafor noted that the Governor has changed the wrong policy of offering employment to the people towards the end of Governor’s tenure by employing over five thousand teachers and three hundred health workers in his first year in office.

 

The Speaker who described Governor Soludo as an experienced public servant and prudent manager of resources, expressed satisfaction with the manner he has continued to channel the State resources in useful ventures and services, which he said, has resulted in enthroning good governance in the state.

 

He maintained that the State House of Assembly under his watch has resolved to continue to work harmoniously with Governor Soludo having seen the manifestation of his development efforts in all sectors especially in road infrastructure, health care system, environmental sanitation, security of lives and property among others.

 

Right Honourable Okafor called on the people of the State to give maximum support to Governor Soludo in his efforts to move the State to greater heights.

 

The State number one lawmaker called for fervently prayers from religious bodies in the state as well as total support of the citizenry to enable Governor Soludo continue to perform optimally even in the remaining years of his tenure.
