What Soludo Did On Security! 

In laying the groundwork for a liveable and prosperous smart megacity — Soludo’s vision for Anambra — security, law and order were not to be taken for granted.

This is why from the very first day Soludo assumed office he began to puncture the ruse hanging over the eyes of the people. First, he was bold to declare that there was no such thing as “Unknown Gun Men”. Everywhere he went he thundered, “these people in the bush are known. They are people’s brothers, friends, husbands and fathers. They belong to a kindred, village, community and town. Any one in the bush with a gun is a criminal”.

He granted amnesty to the repentant, declared the end to the ‘Monday sit-at-home’, and called for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in furtherance of legitimate dialogue on the issues — real and assumed. Soludo went from Church to church, traveled to major cities within and outside the state to hold town hall meetings with stakeholders. His message was simple, “what is happening in Alaigbo, especially in Anambra is a lucrative criminal enterprise, not agitation or freedom fighting. We must fight and chase out these criminals from our land”. He launched a call centre with toll free lines for crime reporting, encouraged the people to “see something, say something”.

While others pretended about this, Soludo went all out with kinetic and non-kinetic approaches to secure spaces hitherto occupied by criminal non-state actors. This was followed by series of other strategic interventions — including sponsoring an executive bill for the enactment of the now famous “Anambra Homeland Security Law” of 2025 — that are beginning to provide results today.
