The wife of the governor of Anambra State, Mrs Nonye Soludo, has said that any woman empowered is a family strengthened,

Mrs Soludo spoke when she joined people of Idemili South Local Government Area at their 2026 August meeting and empowerment summit organized by the Mayor of the Council, Mrs Amaka Obi.

The governor's wife said that what particularly touched her about the event was the emphasis on supporting the beneficiaries with practical means of livelihood.

Among the items distributed during the event were sewing machines, baking ovens, salon equipment, motorcycles, shuttle buses and financial support for petty traders.

According to Mrs Soludo, "the programme speaks to an important truth that when we equip the right hands to earn, create and grow, we strengthen entire families and communities."

She commended the Mayor of Idemili South and everyone who contributed to make the initiative possible, adding that it was an opportunity to share another memorable moment with women.

"I’m hopeful that the skills, tools and support provided will become seeds of prosperity for many families. And as I always emphasize, a woman empowered is a family strengthened, a community transformed, and a future secured", concluded.
