By Ndife David, Awka.

As the race for the next governor of Anambra in the 2025 general election begins to gain momentum, it is becoming increasingly clear that Soludo has established an unassailable lead in popularity and governance. Despite not yet focusing on his re-election, indicators and records undeniably affirm his likely victory in the 2025 gubernatorial election.

In light of this, a support group dedicated to advancing the second-term bid of Anambra State Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, under the aegis of Soludo Volunteer Force (SVF), has taken significant steps to reestablish Soludo's strong grip over Anambra East LGA.

The Soludo Volunteer Force (SVF) has been instrumental in reinforcing the governor's influence and popularity within Anambra East. Recently, they made a notable move by installing Chief Ugochukwu Obiefuna as a patron, a decision that underscores Soludo's continued support and solidifies his political presence in the region. This strategic initiative by SVF highlights their commitment to ensuring Soludo's leadership remains influential and uncontested as the 2025 election approaches.

This move was demonstrated when some officials of SVF paid a familiarity visit to Chief Ugochukwu Obiefuna (Akalaka Umueri) at his family residence in Awka to honour him and his lovely wife with the positions of  Patron and Patroness of the group.

Speaking during the induction ceremony, the Convener, Soludo Volunteer Force (SVF), Mr. Ozoemena Mike (Nzeakonobi) while appreciating Chief Ugochukwu for his huge support, thanked the DCOS to the Governor for his warm welcome and reception and also for happily identifying with the SVF family, noting his significant contributions to the growth and progress of the group, prayed that God will continue to sustain and empower Chief Obiefuna and his family to continue with their good works.

He pointed out that the decision of the group to honour Chief Obiefuna with the position was based on the unwavering trust he has on the unblemished character of Governor Soludo, noting his love, dedication, loyalty and commitment to the Governor and added that he fully believes that Chief Ugochukwu will help Soludo ensure total victory in Anambra East communities.

Mr Ozoemena asserted that Governor Soludo has established several accomplishments, which he believes has already laid the groundwork for positive economic transformation, thus setting up a new governance standard not just for Anambra but for Nigeria as a whole, hence establishing the governor's unchallenged dominance in Anambra's political landscape.

Also in a spectacular display of political unity and grassroots support, the Deputy Chief of Staff to Mr Governor of Anambra State and the Chief of Staff to the National Chairman of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) Chief Obiefuna thanked the group for finding him worthy of the honour as a Patron" and announced that he is proud to identify with SVF, noting his interest on any group or agenda that has to do with Governor Soludo and his APGA led administration. He commended the exceptional leadership qualities of the Soludo Volunteer Force Convener, Hon. Ozoemena, describing him as a household name in Anambra and further promised to continue to support the group to succeed on her mandate.

"If you examine the five pillars of his administration and his vision for the state, you will affirm that Mr. Governor has done marvelously well. It is, therefore, very important to recognize his commitment to progress and fostering a prosperous homeland for Ndi Anambra and a brighter future for all," Chief Ugochukwu said.

Chief Ugochukwu also commended the SVF family for their remarkable love, sacrifices & unwavering support evidently displayed in their commitment to the leadership abilities of Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo's APGA led administration. He further urged the group to remain focused, strong, resolute, and committed and working assiduously towards ensuring landslide victory for the workaholic Professor come 2025 Anambra governorship election.
