Today, I reaffirmed our administration’s commitment to transforming Anambra into Africa’s Silicon Valley. This vision is driven not by politics, but by a clear and strategic imperative to secure the future of our state and its people.

At the graduation ceremony of the Anambra Startup Investment and Technology Skills Programme in Awka, I emphasized the urgent need to integrate technology into every sector of our economy and every level of governance. As the world evolves at an unprecedented pace, we must ensure that our young people are equipped with the skills and opportunities needed to thrive in the digital age.

Through transformative initiatives such as the Solution Innovation District (SID) and the 1 Million Anambra Digital Tribe, we are building a strong foundation for a technology-driven and globally competitive economy.

I congratulate all the graduates, including those trained in robotics and ISP network engineering, for their dedication and achievement. I also commend our partners and sponsors for their invaluable contributions to strengthening Anambra’s innovation ecosystem.

Anambra is steadily emerging as a leading destination for technology, innovation, and digital enterprise. We remain committed to sustaining this momentum and creating opportunities for future generations.

May Anambra continue to win.

Yesterday, I joined my brother, the Governor of Ebonyi State — His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru — alongside other progressives in Abakaliki to stand with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

The time has come for us to unite. Enough of the politics of lamentations.

Ndi Igbo, we must move from the alliance of protest to the alliance for progress — an alliance for prosperity. We must unite. We must not waste our votes again.

Progressives are working together for a renewed and prosperous Nigeria.

Today at the Light House, Awka, I inaugurated the 8th Governing Council of our own Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University.

COOU must not just bear a great name. It must do great things. That is the charge I gave the new team led by Chairman and Pro-Chancellor, Prof. Peter A. Onwualu.

I thank our distinguished external members who answered this call: Igwe Dr. Chris Oranu Chidume, Prof. O. J. Ogbuagu, Chief Christopher Ndubuisi, and AIG Chris Ezike (Rtd.).

My message to them was simple: Put academic excellence first. Push COOU into the league of innovation and world-class research. Work hand-in-hand with the Vice-Chancellor to align the university with global standards and the Anambra we are building.

Prof. Onwualu has already given his word. I know this team will deliver.

We are building a liveable and prosperous Anambra. A strong COOU is non-negotiable in that journey.

May Anambra continue to win!

Today, I celebrate a distinguished young man and my Aide-de-Camp, DSP Tony Amadi, for 35 remarkable years of service in the Nigeria Police Force.

For 22 of those years, Tony has stood by my side with uncommon loyalty, discipline, and dedication. Since 2004, he has been more than an official appointee. He has become family — dependable, steadfast, and unwavering through every season.

We marked this milestone at a celebratory Mass at the Light House, Awka, where I was joined by my wife, Dr. Nonye Soludo.

Tony, my family and I are proud of you. Thank you for your service to Nigeria, to Anambra, and to me. May your retirement years be filled with peace, joy, and the same honor you brought to the uniform.

Congratulations, Tony.

Today, I spent productive hours in Nnewi with my team, walking the city and planning its future.

We started at the Nnewi roundabout — the mall project abandoned for almost 17 years. We toured the entire space. That ends now. We will convert it into something viable and of real public value within the life of this administration.

We moved to the Post Office, Eme Court Road, and the expanse of land between Umudim and Ukpor. I stood at the roundabout and saw it clearly: Nnewi has grown. We must now bring life into it.

Nnewi needs an open arena for leisure and relaxation. If you don’t have that, you are not a city. We intend to build a central motor park, green spaces, and a multipurpose outdoor arena right here. Nnewi deserves it.

Urban renewal is tough work. It involves demolition. But we are intentional. We did it in Ekwulobia — over 500 houses, 14 petrol stations, even a shrine. We did it for the Anambra of the next generation.

What we are doing now should have happened 60 years ago. In the next 10 years, we expect about 35 million people here. We must plan. We must regenerate. We must rescue our cities.

Nnewi, we have turned our gaze on you. We will give this city the facelift it deserves.

May Anambra continue to win!

Yesterday, I welcomed members of the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC), led by their team leader, Alhaji Bello Abubakar Wamako, to the Light House in Awka for the Anambra State Data Verification Exercise.

The enumeration and verification teams, comprising federal commissioners and technical experts, have been deployed across the country to assess key indicators such as population, landmass, and internally generated revenue capacity.

Anambra State has continued to make steady progress in areas that reflect productivity, enterprise, and responsible governance. Exercises such as this are therefore essential to ensuring that the indices used for national revenue allocation accurately reflect current realities and give every state fair and equitable consideration.

Ultimately, nation-building is best served when institutions are strengthened, processes are credible, and decisions are guided by verified data. This is why we will continue to support initiatives that promote transparency, uphold integrity in governance, and advance the collective good of our people.

May Anambra continue to win!

Today, as we mark the 2026 National Children’s Day, we celebrate our children, the pride of today and the promise of tomorrow.

Every child deserves love, quality education, proper care, protection, and the opportunity to fulfil their potential.

As a nation, we must remain steadfast in our commitment to building a society where every child, regardless of background, gender, or circumstance of birth, is given the opportunity to thrive. We must continue to strengthen the institutions, policies, and values that uphold the dignity, rights, and well-being of every child, while protecting them from all forms of neglect, abuse, and vulnerability.

The future of our society will be shaped by how well we nurture, guide, and invest in our children. In their dreams, talents, and aspirations lies the enduring hope of a stronger, more peaceful, and more prosperous nation.

Happy National Children’s Day

Happy Eid el Kabir to our Muslim brothers and sisters in Anambra and across Nigeria.

Today I join millions around the world in celebrating Eid el Kabir. This festival reminds us of the power of obedience, sacrifice, and staying committed to God’s will and to the good of humanity.

As we mark this holy day, I encourage all Muslim faithful to use this moment for prayers for peace, unity, and progress in our nation. Let’s share the feast, extend charity to those around us, and continue to live in tolerance and harmony with one another—no matter our faith or background.

My administration remains committed to keeping Anambra safe and secure, so that everyone can celebrate this season and beyond in peace.

To all our Muslim brothers and sisters: Barka da Sallah! May the blessings of this season fill your homes with joy, peace, and prosperity.

I was at the Palace of Eze Uzu II of Awka, Obi Gibson Nwosu, OON, to pay homage as Awka community marked the annual Imo Awka Festival.

On the occasion, I reaffirmed that peace has returned to Awka, our capital city, and restated my administration’s firm commitment to rebuilding the city and restoring it to its rightful pride of place.

May Eze Uzu II live long and continue to reign in peace and wisdom.
