ANSEC Congratulates Governor Soludo on Sun Governor of the Year Award, Launch of ANAMGIS, and Awards Strategic Projects
The Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) has officially congratulated Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, CFR, on receiving the prestigious Governor of the Year Award from The Sun Newspapers. This recognition, which was presented at an event held in Lagos, was warmly received by the Governor, who dedicated it to the hardworking members of his Solution Team (ANSEC), the dedicated stakeholders, and the resilient people of Anambra State. The award highlights the remarkable leadership of Governor Soludo and his administration in driving progressive changes and initiating transformative projects that are improving the lives of the citizens of Anambra.
In a significant stride toward modernizing land administration in the state, Governor Soludo also recently launched the Anambra Geographic Information Service (ANAMGIS). The launch of ANAMGIS is a groundbreaking development aimed at bringing Anambra State’s land administration system into the 21st century. The service introduces an automated system for land authentication and certification, ensuring transparency and efficiency in land transactions. This marks a key milestone in Governor Soludo’s vision to make Anambra a model state in land governance and administration. ANAMGIS will undoubtedly ease the processes for Ndi Anambra (people of Anambra) in accessing land services, thereby promoting business and residential activities across the state.
The platform will provide a seamless interface for landowners, buyers, and government institutions, ensuring that the state’s land management processes are not only faster but also more transparent. As Anambra continues to experience rapid growth and urbanization, the importance of robust land administration cannot be overstated. The launch of ANAMGIS further cements the Soludo administration’s commitment to creating a more conducive environment for economic development in the state.
As Governor Soludo’s administration prepares to mark its third anniversary on March 17, 2025, the Council noted with great enthusiasm that the week-long celebrations would feature the commissioning of several major projects across the state. Among the most anticipated is the unveiling of significant projects in Okpoko, Ogbaru Local Government Area, which has witnessed a remarkable transformation under the Soludo-led administration.
Okpoko, once regarded as the largest urban slum east of the Niger, has been fully regenerated, and it now stands as a shining example of urban development and revitalization. The transformation is a testament to the Governor’s unwavering commitment to improving living conditions for all citizens of Anambra State, particularly in areas that had previously been neglected. The urban regeneration project in Okpoko has not only enhanced infrastructure but also created a safer and more sustainable environment for residents.
The ongoing efforts to revitalize various communities across Anambra are evidence of the Soludo administration’s dedication to ensuring that development reaches all corners of the state. As the administration enters its third year, Governor Soludo’s commitment to improving infrastructure, healthcare, education, and security remains stronger than ever.
In its recent meeting, the Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) approved a series of strategic projects aimed at further boosting the state’s development. These projects are in line with the Soludo administration’s core focus on infrastructure, healthcare, security, and economic growth.
- Development and Publication of Anambra State Laws
ANSEC awarded the contract for the development and publication of an electronic database of revised Anambra State Laws to Lextech Ecosystem Ltd. The project, valued at N89,139,000.00, is expected to make the state’s laws more accessible, transparent, and easier for citizens and legal professionals to navigate. This initiative will greatly contribute to the state’s efforts to digitize governance and ensure that legal frameworks are more user-friendly. - State-of-the-Art Medical Equipment for the State Trauma Centre
In the area of healthcare, Oxygen Healthcare Ltd was awarded the contract to supply and install state-of-the-art medical equipment at the State Trauma Centre, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital (COOUTH), located in Amaku Awka. The project, which is valued at N2,193,772,108.00, will significantly improve the quality of care offered at the trauma center, ensuring that residents and visitors alike receive world-class medical attention in times of emergencies. This investment in healthcare is part of the Soludo administration’s broader commitment to enhancing the state’s medical infrastructure and providing quality health services to its citizens. - 2-IN-1 Urban Regeneration Projects at Chinua Achebe International Airport
In a bid to further enhance the infrastructure and economic potential of Anambra State, the Council awarded the contract for the 2-IN-1 Urban Regeneration Projects at the Chinua Achebe International Airport, Umueri. The contract, valued at N273,026,399.67, was awarded to Zhontiang Construction Company. This project is expected to improve the airport’s facilities and surrounding areas, making it a key hub for trade, tourism, and business activities. As a major gateway to the state, the successful completion of these projects will elevate Anambra’s profile as an investment destination and contribute to its economic growth. - Security Equipment for the Government House & Governor’s Lodge
The safety of Anambra’s leadership is paramount, and to further strengthen security, Stansol Synergy Ltd was awarded the contract for the supply and installation of security equipment at the new Government House & Governor’s Lodge in Awka. The project, valued at N131,627,533.73, will ensure that the facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art security systems, safeguarding both the Governor and his staff as they carry out their duties for the people of Anambra. - Bumper Car Building and Drivers’ Lounge at Solution Fun City
Zhontiang Construction Company was also awarded the contract for the construction of the bumper car building, drivers’ lounge, and covered walkway at the Solution Fun City in Awka, valued at N545,697,137.00. This project is a major addition to the state’s entertainment and tourism sector, aimed at creating a world-class amusement facility for both residents and visitors. The addition of these facilities is expected to boost the state’s economy, create jobs, and provide a recreational space for families.
As Governor Soludo prepares for the celebrations marking the 3rd anniversary of his administration, it is clear that his leadership continues to drive Anambra State toward greater progress and development. The recent accolades, including the Governor of the Year Award, the launch of ANAMGIS, and the approval of multiple strategic projects, underscore the Governor’s dedication to transforming Anambra into a modern, vibrant, and prosperous state.
The Anambra State Executive Council congratulates Governor Soludo on these remarkable achievements and looks forward to more milestones in the coming years. The commitment to infrastructure development, healthcare, security, and the digitalization of state services will continue to serve as the foundation for further growth and progress in Anambra State.
