Governor Chukwuma Soludo has commissioned a 1.7km road built and paved single-handedly by Chief. Emma Nwakamma in Achalla Community, Awka North Local Government Area.
Speaking during the commissioning,
In his speech, Prof. Soludo noted that the new road is a shining example of Private-Public-Community Partnership, PPCP, model.
Soludo reminded everyone that about 98% of Anambra’s wealth is in private hands and that government alone cannot build the homeland Anambra want.
” When private success meets public spirit, like Chief Nwakamma has shown, transformation happens fast’ Soludo said.
Standing before a cheering crowd of ndi Achalla, the Governor assured the cheering crowd that his administration will step into the leadership crisis currently rocking the community.
” We cannot stand by while internal frictions threaten the future of this ancient kingdom.
“Development can only thrive in an atmosphere of tranquility, and our goal is to ensure that Achalla moves forward as one united family.
“I urged Ndi Anambra not to wait only for government. You don’t need to build a kilometer of road to make a difference. Buy a pencil for a child. Fix a culvert. Clean your market. No one is too poor to give, and no act is too small.
“I also thanked Achalla for the overwhelming mandate you gave me at the polls. We scored 73% of the total votes cast here, and I do not take that trust lightly.
“I commend Chief Emma Nwakamma for responding to the PPCP call. May your act inspire others across Anambra.
“Achalla, we are coming for peace, and together we will move forward as one.
