*CHIEF DR. EBUKA ONUNKWO JOINS GOVERNOR SOLUDO ON WORKING VISIT TO ORUMBA SOUTH, BACKS RE-ELECTION BID*



Orumba South, Anambra State – Yesterday,February 25, 2025, Chief Dr. Ebuka Onunkwo, a frontline APGA senatorial aspirant for Anambra South, accompanied Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo on a working visit to Orumba South Local Government Area. The visit underscored Onunkwo’s unwavering support for the governor’s leadership and his ambitious development agenda for Anambra State.


During the visit, Chief Dr. Onunkwo praised Governor Soludo’s achievements, highlighting key areas of progress under the administration. These include extensive road construction and rehabilitation, youth empowerment initiatives, grassroots community development, free and quality education for residents, and the construction of a new Anambra Lodge and Government House, which he described as transformative projects reshaping the state’s identity.


Echoing his campaign slogan, "No Space In Agu Awka," Onunkwo publicly endorsed Governor Soludo for a second term, calling him a "God-sent" leader whose transformative vision deserves continued support. “Governor Soludo’s strides are unprecedented, and I stand firmly behind his re-election to ensure Anambra’s progress continues,” Onunkwo stated.


A philanthropist and industrialist, Chief Dr. Onunkwo shares Soludo’s commitment to actionable leadership. For over 16 years, he has personally funded a government secondary school in his hometown of Ihembosi, providing quality education to countless students. He also pledged ₦120 million in scholarships to support 120 indigent students across Anambra South if he secures the APGA senatorial ticket—a promise he plans to fulfill even before the 2025 general elections.


Chief Onunkwo’s track record mirrors Soludo’s results-driven governance. Through his company, Seahorse Lubricant Industries Ltd., he has created hundreds of jobs, boosting the local economy. His initiatives also include scholarship programs, skill acquisition efforts, and investments in road construction and community projects, all aimed at uplifting the less privileged and fostering grassroots development.


Political observers see Chief Onunkwo’s potential Senate tenure as a chance to amplify Anambra South’s representation with progressive, people-focused policies. His alignment with Governor Soludo positions him as a key figure in the push for sustained development in the state.


The visit to Orumba South marks another step in the collaboration between these two leaders, as they work to solidify their vision for Anambra’s future.
