The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has commended Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, on the palliative measures he rolled out for the people and residents of the state.
National Chairman of the Party, Sly Ezeokenwa, gave the commendation in a statement he signed and made available through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Tony Olisa Mbeki, to journalists on Tuesday.
Commending Soludo, Ezeokenwa said the Governor had demonstrated great empathy and concern for the well-being of the people resident in the state.
He also noted that the measures were a clear plan of the Governor’s zeal in addressing the hardships faced by the people.
It reads: “I am filled with immense pride and gratitude as I commend the Governor of Anambra State and National Leader of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, for his remarkable efforts in addressing the hardships faced by the people of Anambra State.
“In light of the recent subsidy removal, Governor Soludo has demonstrated great empathy and concern for the well-being of our Ndi Anambra with this singular gesture. He has rolled out a comprehensive palliative program aimed at cushioning the hardships faced by Ndi Anambra during these challenging times. This initiative is a testament to the fact that APGA, as a party, places the well-being of citizens as its primary concern in the spirit of “Be your brothers and sisters keeper”
“I would further commend Governor Soludo for his visionary leadership and determination to alleviate the sufferings of our people. This palliative programme reflects his unwavering commitment to the welfare and well-being of every resident of Anambra State. It is heartening to witness a leader who truly understands the needs of the masses and takes proactive steps to address them effectively.
“I firmly believe that actions like these set an example for other State Governors to emulate. I urge them to take a cue from the extraordinary strides made by Governor Soludo in ameliorating the sufferings of his people.
“Today, I take pride in Governor Soludo’s giant strides and on behalf of APGA, express my deepest appreciation for his selfless dedication to the people of Anambra State. Together, let us continue to support his leadership and work hand in hand towards building a brighter, more prosperous and liveable homeland for all.”
Soludo, in a broadcast on Monday, among other things, announced that over 300,000 households would receive bags of rice from the state government to cushion the effect of the hardship caused by the removal of fuel subsidy by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
