“Anambra is calm very calm and I can tell you it should be certainly one of the top three in terms of safety of lives and property”

“Security, law and order is our priority, we don’t condone touting. All these people collecting illegal revenue and trying to extort and expropriate from people innocently will be kicked out”

The Governor emphasised that Anambra is a home of commerce and the government will not condone the harassment of citizens by touts.

Soludo assured that the Anambra State government is ready to train as many as those interested in skills acquisition and will also provide Start-up funds for their take-off.

“Anambra is a state home of commerce and we don’t want people harassing others who come in and we have zero tolerance for that kind of miscreants. We have a message for them, if you need a job, just come out. We give you training and we have some start-up funds for you to begin afresh and take a new life.

“But if you choose to expropriate from others innocently then we have no room for that in Anambra state. So if you are a tout go else but if you are productive engagement, that’s Anambra, it is a home of enterprise not a home for lazy people who want to get something from nothing,” he added.
