Former Central Bank Governor and candidate of the All
Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the forthcoming governorship elections in
Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has said the State loses N19.6 billion
every day that it is locked down.
Soludo stated this at an enlarged meeting with Anambra State
Elders and Stakeholders Forum, and Forum of Heads of Broadcast Media Stations
in Anambra State.
He called on the people spilling blood in the State to have
a re-think as such actions do not define who Anambra people are.
“Anambra State economy loses an estimated sum of N19.6
billion every time the sit-at-home directive is enforced in the state.
“Such actions do not define who we are. That is why we are
calling on those responsible to stop because we are hurting ourselves.”
Professor Soludo while calling on Ndi Anambra to be
watchful, praised Governor Willie Obiano for what he called outstanding
achievements.
“Governor Willie Obiano has delivered sustainable legacy
projects to Ndi Anambra including the Anambra International airport, the
International convention centre, Awka and the Awka stadium.”
He said the governor has done well despite overseeing two
recessions and the state suffering dwindling federal allocations.
