Anambra APGA Women Chapter Endorse Governor Soludo for 2nd Term

The Women Wing of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Anambra Chapter, has endorsed Gov. Chukwuma Soludo for re-election in the Nov. 8 gubernatorial election in the state.

The endorsement was announced on Thursday in Awka, Anambra State Capital at the 2025 Anambra State Women Summit held at APGA South-East Regional Office.

The summit had the theme: ‘Together We Rise: Achieving the Best Through Women’.

The APGA Women Leader in Anambra and Convener of the summit, Mrs Esther Onyekesi, said that Soludo deserved re-election to enable him to complete his development projects.

Onyekesi said that the endorsement of the governor as the women’s sole candidate was as a result of his accomplishments so far.

“Soludo has done tremendously well in all sectors of the economy, particularly in the health and security sectors.

“Today, every pregnant woman in Anambra, irrespective of tribe and religion, gets free antenatal and delivery care in any government hospital.

“Our children are going to school free, we now sleep with our two eyes closed, our youths are being trained and empowered free through skill acquisition programmes of the government.

“We, the women of Anambra, are calling on contestants from other political parties to consider stepping down for Gov. Soludo.

“This will allow him to fully actualise his Vision-2070 of transforming Anambra into a clean, green, peaceful, secure, livable and prosperous homeland in Nigeria,” she said.

Onyekesi said that the summit was organised to seek support for the governor’s re-election.

‘Women are nation builders’

Responding, the Wife of the Governor, Dr Nonye Soludo, thanked the women for endorsing her husband for a second term.

She said that her husband’s administration prioritised women empowerment and improved women’s living standards.

“My husband’s administration recognise women as nation builders, which the society cannot do without.

“I applaud our women for their remarkable turnout, which reflects their support and appreciation for the efforts my husband is making.

”Be assured that he remains committed to advancing the welfare of women in the state,” she said.
