Okpuno Community in Awka South has declared support for Governor Chukwuma Soludo during the November 8 election to enable him continue with smart city project across the state.

The community made this declaration during the opening ceremony of its Youth Office, which was attended by notable dignitaries in the area.

President General of the community, Mr Luke Egwuatu, commended Governor Soludo for his good works in Anambra State, particularly the dual carriage way constructed by the governor which passed through the community.

He also praised the governor for his efforts in curbing insecurity in the state.

The Youth President, Charles Obidimma, also promised the community's support for Governor Soludo, describing him as "youth-friendly" and commending his administration's empowerment initiatives, such as the 1Youth 2Skills programme.

Obidimma stated that other gubernatorial candidates are "wasting their time" and that Okpuno community electorate would overwhelmingly vote for Governor Soludo.

A chieftain of All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Evang. Chinedu Obigwe, referred to Governor Soludo as "a God-sent" leader for Anambra State.

He praised Okpuno Youths for their declaration of support and advised them to be vigilant on election day to prevent any attempts at rigging the election.
