In his remarks as the special guest of the occasion, Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo emphasized the importance of celebrating heroes while they are still alive, highlighting his commitment to recognizing “Anambra champions” and providing them with well-deserved appreciation.

The Governor reiterated his administration’s focus on improving human capital through initiatives like free education, healthcare, and support for the less privileged. He also encouraged wealthy individuals in the State to invest in community development instead of extravagant spending.

“The Anyaoku Foundation Center promises to be a valuable resource for future generations, inspiring intellectual curiosity and community engagement,” Governor Soludo said.

He urged the wealthy to channel their resources towards improving government schools and public services, pledging to keep supporting the sustainability of the Anyaoku Foundation Center through an endowment fund.

“This event marks a significant step in preserving Chief Anyaoku’s legacy and contributing to the educational and cultural advancement of Anambra State.”
