The Anambra State Government says President Bola Tinubu is set to end infrastructural and economic marginalisation of the South-East region.

The State Government said this in a statement issued by Commissioner for Information Law Mefor, to express gratitude to Tinubu “for his historic State Visit to Anambra, on May 8, 2025.”

The statement said: “The visit marks a significant turning point in the quest for inclusive national development. It signals the beginning of the end of decades of infrastructural and economic marginalisation of the South-East region.

The government and people of Anambra State are deeply gratified that Mr President, in response to the visionary leadership and engagement efforts of their governor,

Prof. Chukwuma Charles Soludo, CFR, graciously approved key requests that were part of Anambra’s strategic ask-list. “The approved items by Mr President include:

1. Inclusion of Anambra State and the South-East in the National Railway Masterplan – A bold step that promises to open new corridors of mobility, trade, and interconnectivity for the South-East and the rest of the federation.

2. Inclusion of Anambra and the Southeast in the nation’s Gas Pipeline Masterplan – A critical enabler of industrialisation and energy access, which will the state’s growing manufacturing and technology sectors.

3. Approval for the completion of the Federal highway linking Anambra and Kogi State—This transformational project will reduce travel time to Abuja from Anambra by about four hours, fostering trade, mobility, and national unity.

4. Commencement of reconstruction works on the failed portions of the Enugu– Onitsha Expressway – the long-standing infrastructural challenge is now finally receiving the federal government’s attention under President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

5. Mr President pledged federal for ecological investments to tackle erosion in Anambra State. This intervention is apposite, knowing that environmental problems of this nature remain Anambra’s number one existential threat.

6. We also appreciate Mr. President’s acceptance to be conferred with the chieftaincy title of “Dike-Si-Mba Anambra” by the traditional rulers in the state. This symbolic title is a testament to his large-heartedness and recognition of his contributions to national development and unity, and his friendship with the state.

7. Mr President acknowledged the huge potential of Anambra State and pledged to work together with Prof. Soludo to fast-track his vision of transforming Anambra into an African Dubai, Taiwan, Silicon Valley (ADTS) in his acknowledgement of Professor Soludo as a Solution Provider and demonstration of Progressives Working Together.

8. The other critical request made by Governor Soludo was for the federal government to get Onitsha River Port working.

9. We are deeply grateful to Mr President for pledging the Federal Government’s continued partnership with Anambra State and the South-East for total restoration of security.”

Adding, the statement said Tinubu’s visit was a victory for justice, inclusivity, and visionary leadership. “This bold response by the president is a deserving show of friendship—a friendship that transcends politics and is rooted in the shared aspiration for a more united, progressive Nigeria and evidence of progressives working together,”

it said. The state government reaffirmed its “commitment to working collaboratively with the Federal Government to ensure the successful execution of these projects” and expressed the confidence “that these landmark approvals will translate into tangible improvements in the lives and livelihoods of our state and its people.”

Kind hearted PRESIDENT. and this people no give u single vote.


What a Leader

I don't even believe South East is marginalized, it's more like a political tool to arm twist the Government. The North Central is the truly marginalized region.

Kind hearted who?
By the way, who told you this news is even true or something that will come to fruition?

Even if Tinubu hand over his kidneys to this people, they will never be satisfy.

We know Anambra is collecting ecological funds to tackle environmental challenges, where's the money going to?

5. Mr President pledged federal for ecological investments to tackle erosion in Anambra State. This intervention is apposite, knowing that environmental problems of this nature remain Anambra’s number one existential threat.

Must you wait for FG?, where are the Anambra bullionaires? abi the likes of Cubana chief priest & Emoney are only interested in spraying money in birthdays and clubs. Lagos, Akwa-ibom are not waiting for FG, they sought international financiers themselves for their new ports.

8. The other critical request made by Governor Soludo was for the federal government to get Onitsha River Port working.

Who marginalized them before?

Same them would be claiming to be the most developed region in Nigeria yet still complaining of being marginalized.

What should the minority tribes do if one of the majority tribes can be crying foul like this

Good move.

my state . Hope Baba GBAJUE is reading this

Tinubu went to Anambra the other day to declare Anambra for BAT and how he plan to retire in the South east.
If South Easterners were like our brothers from the other side they would have accused Tinubu of land grabbing

Is there ittance of the long outcry of marginalisation of south Easterners by the Nigerian-led government?

That's an error of the highest order if true

Ride on Eze Dike 1 of Igbo land..

Soludo is very funny. Walahi.

You made a request, the person you made it to has not publicly approved it, you are here doing propaganda as usual. Tomorrow, Tinubu will deny ever receiving or approving any requests.
What kind of prof is always doing propaganda like this?

Na aracha ike Tinubu. Racha ba ya ofuma.

Sycophancy babablu bulabu..

Tinubu is practically telling them that the place na conquered territory

You can't marginalize world-acclaimed billionaires. Instead,
it's the other way round, Ibos are marginalizing the rest of the country

Once I see a thread and the first three to four comments points at promoting the thread, then is as useless as it arrives.....
