By PAMELA EBOH, Awka
Ahead of the National Assembly election in Anambra State, the former Adviser to Governor Chukwuma Soludo on Political Matters, Dr. Alex Obiogbolu, has promised a results-driven approach with focus on agriculture, education, and critical infrastructure if elected.
Obiogbolu who spoke during a Consultative meeting in Ayamelum Local Government Area of the state pledged to improve access to farming inputs, develop internal farm roads, and strengthen the agricultural value chain to boost productivity and rural incomes for his constituency, Anambra North Senatorial zone.
He said: “Representation must be purposeful. It is about identifying real challenges and pursuing solutions that improve lives.
“Our people deserve better. They need policies that translate into opportunities especially for farmers, traders, and workers.”
The frontline senatorial hopeful gave assurance of strong collaboration with both federal and state governments to ensure that the promises of the Renewed Hope and Solution Agenda translate into visible development for the people.
While highlighting education support, expansion of road and water transportation, improvement in healthcare delivery, electricity supply, and strengthening security across the zone as some of the major areas of strategic partnership with the federal and state governments, the former Special Adviser described targeted programmes for youth and women development as central to inclusive growth.
According to him, representation must be practical, impactful, and focused on meeting the real needs of the people.
The senatorial hopeful seeking to fly the All Progressives Grand Alliance, (APGA), flag for the election to represent the people of Anambra North in the Senate gave assurance that his constituents will not only get better representation, but will also have a strong voice at the red chambers of the National Assembly.
