Anambra state government has sent a thank you message to its citizens for the warm reception accorded the president, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu during his state visit.
The message is contained in the media statement signed by the state commissioner for Information, Dr Leo Mefor and made available to the media on Friday.
According to the statement, the state visit was executed as planned and yielded several results.
The statement read:
NDI ANAMBRA, THANK YOU FOR THE ENTHUSIASTIC RECEPTION FOR MR PRESIDENT, H.E. ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU, GCFR, DIKE-SI-MBA ANAMBRA
The Anambra State Government wishes to express gratitude to Ndi Anambra for the rousing welcome given to the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, Dike-Si-Mba Anambra, on his historic state visit to Anambra State.
The state visit was executed as planned and yielded several results, which would shortly benefit the state and its citizens. In response to Governor Soludo’s requests on behalf of the state, among other results, the president promised to assist the state in addressing the erosion threat, reintegration into the national railway system, and restoring the state to the nation’s gas master plan. The president also promised to finish the federal roads linking Anambra and Kogi that were abandoned to facilitate access and shorten travel time from Anambra State to the South-South and Abuja.
The president also used the state visit to gauge the mood of Ndi Anambra and to commission some historic projects that the Soludo administration has completed in the past three years. These included the brand-new Anambra Government House Mini-city, the largest in Nigeria after Aso Rock Villa, and Solution Fun City, which included a leisure park (water park and amusement park), a family fun house, and a country club.
Along with unveiling the Our Heroes Past Monument and the Emeka Anyaoku Boulevard, the eight-lane dual highway leading to the new government building, the President also lit the Light of the Nation Tower.
Thank you again. You have once again shown yourselves to be the light of the nation.
