In a statement issued on Sunday, Tinubu praised Soludo’s administration for bringing discipline, grace, brilliance, and a fresh perspective to governance in Anambra. “Governor Soludo, the Solution, has demonstrated that indeed knowledge is power and that academic principles can be applied in serving the people, undergirding accountability, transparency and prudent management of people and resources,” he said.
Tinubu commended the people of Anambra State, security agencies, and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the peaceful and successful conduct of the governorship election. He also congratulated Soludo on becoming the third governor in the state’s history to win a second term.
