Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma on Thursday commended President Bola Tinubu for approving the dualization two roads that connect Anambra to other states, declaring that the president is intentionally rebuilding the southeast.
The roads are the Otuocha–Anam–Abaji in Kogi State, which is about 108km and the Oba–Nnewi–Uga–Ihube (Okigwe Junction), connecting Anambra/Imo to the Enugu–PH Road, passing through Abia, which is about 150km.
Soludo, who announced this on his X account @ccsoludo said: “I can’t contain my joy and that of my people regarding the great news from DIKESIMBA Anambra; DIKESIMBA NDIGBO, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR!”
According to Gov. Soludo, President Tinubu has a date with history, and even more so with the Southeast.
“He continues to demonstrate his avowed commitment to orchestrating the reconstruction of the Southeast, thereby finally healing the wounds of the Civil War.
“There are several unprecedented, foundational infrastructural rebirths going on in the Southeast at the moment. We will celebrate the full list later….”
Soludo narrated how he met and discussed the rehabilitation of the roads with Tinubu, leading to the president’s approval.
“I met the President on Wednesday, July 1. The next day, the Hon. Minister for Works and Infrastructure (our own ever-productive and beloved Sen. Dave Umahi) contacted me to send him the details of the roads we had repeatedly discussed.
“Today, 15th July, I received a message from the Min. of Works that the President has graciously approved both roads for “design and procurement”! What can I say? These two roads constitute critical game-changers for the Southeast, South-South and North Central.
“The man who tamed the Atlantic Ocean in Lagos is certainly redefining politics, and the Southeast won’t be the same again!
“For me personally, this is why politics makes sense to me: working collaboratively and building alliances to achieve concrete results that improve the lives of the people,” Soludo said.
He thanked Preident Tinubu, declaring that history would be kind to him.
