The Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has described women as educators, entrepreneurs, innovators, builders as well as the very foundation of the society.

He stated this while congratulating all women in the state and all over Nigeria on the occasion of International Women’s Day taking place today, Friday, 8, 2024, with the theme “Inspire Inclusion”.

Expressing his sense of immense pride in the phenomenal women of Anambra State and, indeed, all of Nigeria, the governor commended their outstanding impacts as builders of society who deserve to be celebrated.

Soludo’s congratulatory message was contained in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Christian Aburime in Awka, the state capital.

The statement reads in part: “Your impact is undeniable. You are the indomitable spirit that drives our families, businesses, and communities forward. You are the educators, the entrepreneurs, the innovators, the builders – the very foundation of our society. Today, and every day, we celebrate you.

“This year’s theme, ‘Inspire Inclusion’, resonates deeply as it is a call to action, a reminder that true progress comes when we all work together, men and women, side by side.

“In Anambra, we are committed to ensuring that every woman has the opportunity to reach her full potential. That’s why we keep supporting and investing in initiatives that prioritize maternal healthcare, empower women economically, and champion the education of girls,” says the Governor.”

The Governor further called on Ndi Anambra to continue inspiring and supporting inclusion of women, so that an Anambra where every woman can dream big, achieve her goals, and contribute to the greatness of our State can be created.
