RAYMOND OZOJI reports
The people of Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State have declared total and unflinching support for Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo only because of the transformations propelled by his administration in the council area.
The people in one accord maintained that of all the governors that have ruled Anambra State, only Governor Soludo remembered a road in Oyi Local Government Area that has been completely forgotten and abandoned since 40 years ago.
The people of Oyi therefore made the declaration at the reception ceremony organised to formally integrate and incorporate Oyi Solution Ladies into Soludo Support Group (SSG) held at the humble abode of the council chairman Hon. Chief Emmanuel Ikechukwu Nweke, at Ifite-Awkuzu last weekend.
Nweke who also functions as the Coordinator of Soludo Support Group Oyi Local Government Area as well as the Chairman of All Soludo Support Groups Oyi Local Government Area, stated that Governor Soludo has done exceedingly well especially with the construction of Umunya road in the council area in less than 8 months.
Nweke recalled that the said Umunya road was first awarded for construction during the Jim Nwobodo administration about 40 years ago and that since then no other governor completed the road project except Governor Soludo who came and completed it.
Nweke said Soludo has employed 8,115 teachers which according to him was never done by any other governor in the history of the state, adding that the governor said categorically that he would prioritise the health and education sectors as both sectors impacted directly on the lives of the people.
He said in Anambra-North, Nzam in Anambra-West is the only place in Nigeria without a tarred road. But according to him, under the current administration and in less than 4 years, Nzam can now be accessed through tarred road.
He said there were no roads in Awka-North Local Government Area but Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo's administration has constructed Amansea-Ebenebe-Ugbene-Ugbenu-Awba-Ofemili road; a 26.5 kilometers road. That Soludo has also done and completed Amansea-Ezinator-Ndi-Ukwuenu-Ufuma and so many others, emphasizing that no roads were there before.
He said currently the governor is constructing another road at 3:3 junction in Oyi linking Tarzan to the Enugu-Onitsha federal highway with about two bridges. That Nkwo-Awkuzu-Aba link road is equally under construction currently.
The Oyi council Mayor noted that Governor Soludo has surpassed his predecessors in infrastructural development judging from what is already on ground with emphasis on Oyi Local Government Area.
He however described the Oyi Solution Ladies as a force to wreckon with as they supported his campaign and ensured that he was elected as the Mayor of Oyi Local Government Area.
He said being the Coordinator of Soludo Support Group in Oyi, he wouldn't want the women to split into other groups hence he decided to co-opt them into Soludo Support Group so that they can mobilize the grassroots to replicate the feat achieved in the September 28 Local Government Election in the forthcoming November 8th Anambra State Governorship Election next year.
Hon. Mrs. Ukamaka Uchegbu, the Woman Leader Soludo Support Group Oyi Local Government Area, assured that women in the area will fight tooth and nail to ensure that Soludo is returned for another term in office.
Mrs. Uchegbu who led the Solution Babes to the occasion, said there is no opposition in Oyi Local Government Area. That the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) remains the only political party known to the people of Oyi and nothing can change it because they are fully prepared for the November 8th Anambra Governorship, stressing that Soludo must win the election.
Meanwhile the National Convener of Soludo Support Group (SSG) Hon. Chief Chinedu Nwoye Glamour, who decorated and transformed the Oyi Solution Babes into members of the SSG family, said the whole ceremony was to formally accept Oyi Solution Babes into Soludo Support Group.
Nwoye therefore tasked the women to go into the hinterlands and begin apostolic work on the Soludo administration.
He said they should begin to tell people at the grassroots that Soludo is delivering on his election promises and that they should also lead by example.
Also the General Secretary of Soludo Support Group Hon. Lion Tony Ezeigwe, said Soludo Solution Babes worked In partnership with Soludo Support Group to deliver most of the elections in Oyi Local Government Area including the September 28 Anambra Local Government Elections where the group delivered the current Mayor of the council area.
Ezeigwe said that the indefatigable Soludo Solution Babes who were adopted into the SSG family were charged to go into the villages and communities as ambassadors and apostles of the current administration to speak vehemently and convincingly about the dividends of good governance spread across the entire state by the Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo's government.
Highlight of the event was the official decoration and acceptance of Oyi Soludo Solution Babes into Soludo Support Group (SSG) Oyi chapter.
