Anambra Governor’s wife, Mrs Nonye Soludo has initiated plans to set up healthy living clubs in secondary schools and tertiary institutions in the state.
The governor’s wife who stated this in Awka, explained that the essence of having the clubs in schools is to drive her healthy living campaign down to a level where teenagers will be able to assimilate the principles of living right and keeping pace with development and innovations in the world around them.
Mrs Soludo explained that the healthy living club will also bring back the era of school clubs, and help promote the right values among students and also help them become healthy living ambassadors upon graduation.
She disclosed that areas of focus for the clubs will include what they should eat, anti-smoking, anti-drugs, abuse of medicine, personal hygiene, clean and healthy environment and physical fitness, among others.
The governor’s wife also disclosed that the students would be trained on the principles of love and compassion, pointing out that her target is to have student campaigners who will make healthy living a household philosophy in Anambra State.
Mrs Soludo also explained that members of the club will be placed on certain behavioural benchmarks like personal cleanliness, passion for the tasks, punctuality to school, good dressing, good habit and obedience.
The Anambra first lady, while explaining that she intends to domicile her healthy living movement fully in Anambra State, observed that with the return of inter-school games in secondary schools in Anambra State, the healthy living clubs will spur students towards getting better in their homes and chosen careers.
Note that Mrs Soludo has been a healthy living and hygiene ambassador for more than seventeen years, promoting physical fitness, organic food consumption, hygiene and better environment.
