My Prayers for Soludo to win in Anambra!
– By Temitope Ajayi
Anambra State has had consistent progression on the development index from the time of Dr. Chris Ngige through Mr. Peter Obi to the current Governor Obiano.
The state is one of the few states where the benchmark has not fallen below expectations after the mishap of Dr. Mbadinuju abysmal performance between 1999-2003.
In next Saturday Guber election in the State, it is my wish that Professor Charles Soludo of APGA should win. Regardless of his personal foibles, he has a record of significant accomplishments as Economic Adviser to President Obasanjo with key reforms and as Governor of Central Bank.
Professor Soludo has a record he is running on and a point to proof if he became the next Governor. We need more professionally accomplished people to run the states not just jackals who want to be Governor just for the paraphernalia of office. Save for few states with established pattern in their development trajectory, others are a major drawbacks on national development.
