CHARLES Soludo The Executive Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo has begun processes to put an end to the incessant darkness in the state.
Prof. Soludo, in the moves to ensure a steady power supply in the state, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC).
Prof Soludo disclosed information about the memorandum in a series of tweets he posted on his Twitter handle.
He stated that he believes, with a constant electricity supply, the economic viability of the state would be improved.
He said the relationship between the Anambra State Government and the EEDC to ensure 24/7 power supply in at least four cities in the state started about a year ago.
His complete statement read in parts:
"Today, I signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) to ensure that power supply in the state is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
"The signing of the MoU took place today at the Anambra State Executive Council Chambers, Government House, Awka. Today is a historic day for the people and the state.
"I acknowledge that this signing will completely translate into positive changes, which is critical for the journey towards a liveable and prosperous homeland that cannot be achieved without a continuous supply of power.
"Long before I was sworn in as Governor of Anambra, I recognized the importance of power and deeply considered how it could be achieved in the shortest period for at least three to four major cities in the state. What we did today was to consummate that marriage.
"The courtship began over a year ago, and I am overjoyed that the marriage has finally been consummated today. We must all work together to ensure that we have a stable and continuous power supply in Anambra State. Anambra will continue to win!
