A new era of security has dawned in Anambra State, courtesy of Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s bold move to tackle rising insecurity.

The unveiling of the Anambra Homeland Security Law 2025 and the launch of “Udo Ga-Achị,” a special security operation, marks a significant turning point in the state’s fight against crime.

To criminals, this is a clear warning that Anambra State is no longer a haven for illicit activities.

 Governor Soludo’s administration has made it unequivocal that criminality will not be tolerated.

With the establishment of Agunechemba, a new vigilante architecture, and the deployment of over two thousand combined security personnel, the state has become a hostile environment for those who seek to do harm and sustain instability.

Governor Soludo’s commitment to making Anambra the safest state in Nigeria is not just rhetoric.

The five million naira bounty for whistleblowers on kidnappers sends a strong message to those who engage in this heinous crime that their days are numbered.

The security agencies have a critical role to play in this effort. They should utilize the two hundred operational vehicles provided by the governor effectively, focusing on combating crime rather than personal errands.

The people of Anambra State are counting on them to keep their communities safe. This is not the time for complacency or corrupt practices.

The people of Anambra State have suffered enough at the hands of criminals. It’s time for the state to take bold action to protect its citizens.

In Igbo tradition, silence is not an option when wrongdoing occurs. Parents and relatives have a moral obligation to report their children’s misconduct, upholding the age-old adage “If you see something, say something.”

By speaking out against ill-gotten wealth and blood money, families can avoid the stigma that comes with condoning evil and help restore honour to their households.

The people of Anambra State deserve peace and security, and their government has demonstrated a clear commitment to delivering just that.

Opposition politicians who exploit insecurity in the state as a campaign strategy should desist from doing so. Globally, security is recognized as a collective responsibility.

 They should altruistically join hands to support this initiative, as insecurity affects everyone, regardless of affiliation.

Let us remember that when the rain falls, it falls on every roof.
