The wife of the Anambra State governor, Mrs Nonye Soludo, has congratulated Anambra State for the state's performance at the 2025 President and Schools competition in Abuja, where the state won nine awards.

The awards include the overall best school in Nigeria won by Woliwo Primary School II, Onitsha, first runner-up for best approved private School in Nigeria won by Pinkberry International School, Odume, Obosi.

Others are first runner-up, for approved private Senior Secondary School in Nigeria won by Emmanuel Ndibe of St Theresas Secondary School, Enugwu Ukwu, and first-runner up for best approved private Primary School Teacher in Nigeria won by Nkechi Ikedi of Pinkbery International Primary School Odume, Obosi.

The awards for the first runner-up for best public Junior Secondary School in Nigeria was won by Girls’ Secondary School, Ojoto, first runner-up for the best Public Primary School Teacher in Nigeria was won by Cosmas Nwata of Igbariam Farm Settlement Primary School, while the first runner-up for best public Senior Secondary School Administrator in Nigeria won by Amaka Ubaka of Prince Memorial Secondary School, Onitsha.

Equally the award for the first runner-up for best public Junior Secondary School Administrator in Nigeria won by Ngozi Okafor of Community High School, Nkwelle Ezunaka, and first runner-up for best public Primary School Administrator in Nigeria was won by Nnenna Edozieobi of Model Primary School, Akabor, Ojoto.

Describing the awards as another phenomenal feat, Mrs Soludo said: "I’m super excited to learn that Anambra State won historic 9 awards at the 2025 President and Schools Excellence Award held in Abuja.

All of these great awards represent the fruits of our investments in Anambra’s education sector. Our 2025 budget dedicated 101% of the spending to the sector alone, representing the largest budgetary allocation in terms of sectorial breakdown.

The rewards are paying off, and it’s all credit to the right vision and deliberate target."

According to her, education is the backbone of the state's human capital master plan, noting that Governor Chukwuma Soludo's Dubai-Taiwan journey begins from the classroom.

She congratulated all the schools and teachers who made the state proud again, saying, "May your flame of glory take you farther than it already has."
