In Congratulatory Message To Soludo, Buhari Demands End To Developmental Challenges Facing Anambra, South-East

President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated Chukwuma Soludo for winning the Anambra State Governorship election.

In his congratulatory message, Buhari urged Soludo to use his wealth of experience to address the developmental needs of the state and the entire South-east.

He also noted that Soludo is part of his economic team and the federal government would work with him to bring development to the region.

“I congratulate Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) — and a member of the Presidential Economic Advisory Committee (PEAC) — on his victory in the Anambra State gubernatorial election.

“I commend the security agencies for their determination to ensure that the election went on as smoothly as possible, and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the successful conclusion of the exercise, despite the initial challenges encountered.

“I enjoin Prof Soludo to rally other stakeholders to tackle the enormous challenges confronting Anambra State and the Southeast in general.

“I look forward to working with him for the peace, security and development of Anambra State and the entire country,” he stated on Facebook.

Soludo was declared winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission on Wednesday, after defeating his opponents in Buhari’s All Progressives Congress and the People’s Democratic Party.

Part of his campaign manifesto is to transform the state to an industrial hub.
