Mayor of Idemili North Local Government Area (INLGA), Hon Stanley Nkwoka (Ochendo Idemili) has commended the Local Government Service workers under the auspices of ‘Solution Vanguard’ for their resolution and strategic plans to vote for Governor Chukwuma Soludo come November 8, 2025 for a second term in office.
Addressing Idemili North LGA workers with the Solution Vanguard State/National team during a strategic meeting at INLGA Secretariat Ogidi, Nkwoka said he was elated that for the first time workers who were known to be apolitical decided to come together without being coerced to speak out.
He said the workers had not only pledged to vote for Soludo who had outshined his predecessors in delivering Good Governance but were willing to go extra mile to compel others to vote him into office for a second term.
He said, “Workers see themselves as people in the barracks. Soldier go soldier come, barrack remain full. Unlike before, the way it is in your mind because of the way Governor Soludo is working has made you workers organize yourselves to campaign and vote for him.
“For your support to ensure that Prof Chukwuma Soludo retains power, I, Ochendo Idemili is out to support Solution Vanguard because you have made me glad and I am so happy.
“Idemili North has resolved that the person we know for November 8, 2025 across all parties is Prof. Chukwuma Soludo.
“Two weeks ago we had the biggest endorsement in Anambra State. It was not a fake endorsement. We had over 60,000 signatures, handwritten endorsement for Governor Soludo in Idemili North.
” You civil servants are helping me. I am a grassroot politician. Let each person go to his or her polling unit and get me names of four persons he has convinced to vote for APGA in the next one week and watch out for my response.”
According to one of the Solution Vanguard’s National Coordinators, BOT, Hon Azubike Okoye (Odenigbo Agulu), Soludo has received Best Governor SUN and Vanguard’ Newspapers awards for Good Governance. So, because of the good job Prof. Soludo is doing workers in the Local Government Service Commission kept disturbing us that they will form a formidable group ‘Solution Vanguard’ to support his re-election.
“For instance, Now workers are begging to go for retirement because Soludo pays gratuity and pension as at when do. His Excellency paid off the backlog of unpaid gratuity and pensions which were left there for years by his predecessors before he resumed office. Workers are happy with him and the LGSC staff came together to ensure they gave him 16,000 votes and above,” said Okoye.
Earlier, the Solution Vanguard’s Anambra State Coordinator, Offor Evaristus Obiora said that although workers were not partisan politicians, the LG staff all over the 21 LGAs decided to form Solution Vanguard to support Governor Soludo because he has performed more than expected within the last three years in office.
“We can see, hear and feel the impact of what Mr Governor is doing in Anambra State. We need to take the messages of his exploits to the grassroots for those in the hinterlands to know and vote him back for a second term so that he can do much more.
“Solution Vanguard target is to give not less than 16,000 votes to Governor Chukwuma Soludo. Firstly, every LG staff should register and fill his or her Solution Vanguard Membership form.
“Secondly, Every member will see 5 spaces provided in the form where you will enter names of 5 registered voters in your ward/polling unit whom you have convinced to vote for Prof Chukwuma Soludo come November 8, 2025,” said Offor.
