Soludo Sworn in for Second Term as Anambra Governor

On March 17, 2026, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo was sworn in for his second term as Governor of Anambra State, marking the beginning of a new phase in his governance aimed at further transforming the state. Soludo, who previously served as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, first assumed office on March 17, 2022, after winning the gubernatorial election held in November 2021.

During his first term, he claimed to have delivered 90% of his campaign promises, including significant projects like the new Ekwulobia Fun City and the Lighthouse. The inauguration ceremony took place at Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka, contrasting with the sparsely attended event of his first swearing-in.

Soludo's administration aims to prioritize the needs of the people, particularly focusing on urban slums like Okpoko. He expressed gratitude for the support received from the citizens and reaffirmed his commitment to working diligently for the state's development.
