One of the reasons Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo ran for office in 2022 was revealed by him on Friday.

Soludo revealed that one of the main reasons he ran for governor was the Okpoko region of Anambra State.

He made this revelation at the Ogbaru Constituency Campaign event in the state’s Okpoko region.

According to Soludo: “Okpoko is one of the major reasons why I contested to be governor of Anambra. From 2010 until 2022, I could not sleep well seeing the way Okpoko was.

“Seeing the way Okpoko was, the biggest urban slum in the Southeast, if not Nigeria with over half a million people.

“No water, no road, no street lights, nothing. I told you when I was campaigning that help was on the way.

“I promised Ndi-Anambra that either the day of my swearing in or the day after I will resume work at Okpoko.

“I was sworn in on the 17th and on the 18th I came here and we came to this venue and today over 20 kilometers of streets, roads have been done, street lights done, pipe borne water done, hospital for the first time now in Okpoko.

“Children are enjoying free education, that’s why we came. I love you more. I will come and take one room here.”
