Soludo disclosed that the Okpoko area of Anambra State was
part of the major reason he contested for governorship.

He disclosed this during the Ogbaru Constituency Campaign
rally in Okpoko area of the state.

According to Soludo: “Okpoko is one of the major reasons why
I contested to be governor of Anambra. From 2010 until 2022, I could not sleep
well seeing the way Okpoko was.

“Seeing the way Okpoko was, the biggest urban slum in the
Southeast, if not Nigeria with over half a million people.

“No water, no road, no street lights, nothing. I told you
when I was campaigning that help was on the way.

“I promised Ndi-Anambra that either the day of my swearing
in or the day after I will resume work at Okpoko.

“I was sworn in on the 17th and on the 18th I came here and
we came to this venue and today over 20 kilometers of streets, roads have been
done, street lights done, pipe borne water done, hospital for the first time
now in Okpoko.

“Children are enjoying free education, that’s why we came. I
love you more. I will come and take one room here.”
