A Former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, said he joined the governorship race in Anambra state to make the South-East geopolitical zone an island of prosperity.

Newsmen report that Soludo will run for the Nov. 6 poll on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).

In an interaction with newsmen on Saturday in Awka, he said the South-East had become largely unlivable despite the solid foundation and infrastructure laid down by leaders for the region’s development.



Soludo described the South-East as a “tiny poor place that must begin to turn into a Promised Land.

“For you to create a livable society comparable to any other place, it requires a crusade for all and it must happen simultaneously in the South-East,” he said.

He said Anambra had been relatively lucky with good governance in spite of its little resources.

“My African Dubai Taiwan metaphor of development for Anambra is not dead.

“The larger goal is to make Nigeria a prosperous nation by creating prosperous and happy states.

“The mission is to create a greater tomorrow,” Soludo said.

He said that his aspiration was not a personal quest to enrich his livelihood, saying, “God has blessed me beyond imagination from a poor village boy to the peak of my career as a professor.”

Soludo, who noted that he had served in more than 25 committees at the federal level and travelled to about 45 countries, said his wealth of experience placed him above other contestants.

“I have done it at the global level and at the national level and now I want to contribute my quota at the state level.

“There is nobody else with the global contact and national network or anything 10 per cent near it as I have for the job,” he said.

2021 magician, with the present constitution all ur promise is pure water

Juliusmalema:
And you couldn't do so as CBN Governor for 5 years?

All your statement these days are scary..

From one million Jobs to people contesting with you are small boys to this now..

No standard manifesto just gibberish up and down..

I remember so very vividly when Peter Obi was busy campaigning for Obiano, he took Obiano nearly to all campaign areas...Obi will do the whole talking and umeh will say his , bianca will add hers and Obiano will now come and the oy thing Obiano will contribute to the campaign is "Arinzechukwu, I will do my best" then thunder clap everywhere..Lol

if we are to look at the present crops of aspirants jostling for the governorship election, who would you prefer in terms of presentation, and ideas?

Soludo please no too much talk.

Ever since Oshiomole and Okorocha disappoint me, I no trust any of una again.

Sullivan Chime hardly made statement before he became governor but he did wonders. Even Dave Umahi was not loquascious.

This is NTA matter. something that supposed to be talked in public shouldn't be discussed in General..

Recycling any politician of Obasanjo era is the worst mistake any statecan make. Most of them are nearly out of politics and are seriously looks for ways to return..to continue where they stopped.

@ the last paragraph, Ogbeni, you need to go and check the meaning for a politician.

Prof Soludo has never been a politican until now. This technocrat is the reason many Nigerians banks are still strong today. He's a finance czar per excellence not a regular politician.

If not for how useless this country is, someone with his kind of portfolio should be running for president.

Kindly face Hope Uzodimma and allow others face theirs..

Who asked for your opinion and how does what happens here related to you.

They will never vote someone like dz... They just like voting in fools

Prof Soludo will transform Anambra state to the awe of everybody. One thing is for sure, he is the chosen one.

In sane countries people like these are supposed to be begged to lead their nation's but not so here in nigeria where tribal and religious sentiments have totally destroyed everything.

With that they will make sure you fail... The only people they want at government houses in the east are the likes of Hope Uzodinmma, Chris Uba, Emeka Offor, Ohakim and co. Touts and brigands they created... Babangida did it, Obasanjo tried it and Buhari is on it... Any eastern politician with a progressive mindset is up against it..

Anambra and imo including all the 5 SE states are related by blood what affect one also affect the others so shut the hell up.
