Governor Charles Soludo says the next four years of President Bola Tinubu’s administration will produce a stronger and fairer Nigeria.


Mr Soludo said this on Thursday when he received the president’s wife, Oluremi Tinubu, during her official visit to Anambra.


The governor acknowledged economic challenges facing Nigerians but said the Tinubu administration’s reforms offered reasons for optimism.


“Many are complaining now, but I see hope in the Renewed Hope Agenda. Let me assure you that the president is working hard to secure a brighter future for all,” stated the Anambra governor. “I am convinced that the next four years of President Tinubu’s administration will most certainly see a stronger and fairer Nigeria.”


He commended the first lady for using her platform to improve lives and for visiting the state.


“We are here to receive and celebrate our first lady, a supportive wife, pastor and compassionate mother of the nation,” he said.


He said empowering more than 500 residents through the Renewed Hope Initiative demonstrated cooperation among progressive forces.


“Indeed, the progressives are working together. APGA and APC, as progressives in Nigeria, have no choice but to work for Nigeria’s greatness,” Mr Soludo said.


He described the partnership between the All Progressives Grand Alliance-led state government and the APC-led Federal Government as beneficial.


“Our administration will continue to cascade federal government reforms in the state, especially at the grassroots, for the benefit of our people,” he said.


Mrs Tinubu thanked the governor for domesticating the Renewed Hope Agenda to improve the welfare of Anambra residents. She urged the five South-East governors to jointly inaugurate the National Community Food Bank programme across the zone.


According to her, the initiative will extend nutritional support to primary healthcare centres across the five states.


Mrs Tinubu said the PHCs would provide food and nutritional assistance to pregnant and lactating mothers and children below six years. She described the programme as “hope accomplished for vulnerable Nigerians”.
