….Seeks Media Collaboration
The Anambra State Commissioner for information, Dr. Law Mefor, Thursday, sought collaboration with the journalists and other media practitioners in promoting governor Chukwuma Soludo administration’s laudable achievements in office.
Mefor, who stated this at a meeting with members of Correspondents Chapel of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in his office, noted that the governor had in two years achieved many things but underreported.
2According to him, Soludo has a solid blueprint for Anambra’s growth and had within two years awarded over 400 roads and completed more than 250 of them, yet without borrowing.
” He’s competing with other governors that are in second tenure. I believe in Soludo and my reasons are obvious. His political journey started in 2009 and I’ve been with him since then. He has made name and money so he’s not here to chase clout.
“He told me he wants to rebuild Anambra and his blueprint is strategic. When we were presenting him to Nigeria for President, he said he needed to start with his state. The governor’s reputation resonates globally, and we must leverage this to attract investment and development. Anambra is truly the Light of the Nation.
“We have a rich heritage, and it’s time to showcase our successes. We must publicize Mr Governor’s efforts to showcase the state’s potential, including embarking on project tour. The media is my primary constituency. If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go with a group. I desire to work with you so please come along on this journey with me. I’ll be the bridge between you and government.”
Responding, the Chairman of Correspondents’ Chapel, Mr Chuks Ilozue, represented by his vice, Mrs Nkeiru Nwagbo, congratulated the Commissioner on his new appointment, and assured him of robust partnership.
