ANAMBRA'S JOURNEY TO SMART MEGACITY - By Okey Emmanuel

SOLUDO'S TAKE-OFF: A CRACK KICK-STARTS ANAMBRA'S TRANSITION TO SMART MEGA CITY

By Okey Emmanuel

The journey to the much awaited smart mega city promised to Ndi Anambra by Prof Soludo, the Anambra Governor elect, shall be taking off with the inauguration of a transition committee to be chaired by Dr Oby Ezekwesiri.

In a media release signed by Mr Joe Anatune - a member of the committee and the Media Assistant to the Anambra Gov Elect, Chukwuma Soludo Secretariat - the committee shall be inaugurated on February 20, 2022.

The 80-man committee comprises of great and successful men of "timber and caliber" from various fields of life cuts across party lines and state of origin. No doubt, the committee is all encompassing.

The release added that the committee members shall be working with other team members that shall be nominated by the Anambra State government.

Reacting to her appointment as the chair of the committee in her verified Twitter handle, Ezekwesili said  "Soludo, wants a solid groundwork for his governance and has asked me to chair his transition committee. I have accepted and  will teamwork with my distinguished colleagues to help achieve his transition goals and competent governance."

Also conspicuous in the list are Prof Pat Utomi who hails from Delta State and Chief Osita Chidioka who is a PDP chieftain. Oby Ezekwesili herself, popularly known as Madan 'Due Process' is also not from the same political party with Soludo.

From this crack team, there is no doubt that Prof Soludo is poised to actualise his promise of a smart mega city for Anambra state.
