The governor of Anambra State, Chukwuma Soludo, has congratulated Bola Tinubu on his emergence as the president-elect following the conclusion of the 2023 elections.
In a statement he signed on Tuesday, the governor also congratulated Tinubu’s closest opponents for their courageous and impressive outing.
Soludo, who had in the past called for the release of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, also appealed to Tinubu to release the Biafran agitator immediately after inauguration.
Let me also congratulate the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his election. We congratulate your closest opponents for their courageous and impressive outings.
Nigeria needs healing and restructuring, and the fundamental challenges of insecurity and the economy remain humongous.
We pledge to collaborate and partner with you and the Federal Government for the development of Anambra state and Nigeria.
This is the only country that we call ours and we must make it work. One critical issue that we must draw your urgent attention to is the issue of systemic insecurity in the South East.
