With Soludo’s exceptional track record, expertise, and unwavering commitment to fiscal transparency and accountability, it comes as no surprise that Anambra State has achieved the remarkable feat of being ranked number one in fiscal transparency in 2024.
These significant recognitions showcase the administration’s dedication to transparent budgeting, accessible e-procurement portals, fiscal reporting, and the integrity of the state’s website. This reaffirms Soludo’s stature as a paragon of good governance, financial prudence, and fiscal integrity.
Ndi Anambra has also witnessed the administration’s impactful efforts in prudent public resource management. For instance, government offices in Anambra were spending N137 million each month on cleaning public offices until Soludo assumed office and promptly slashed the cost to a mere N11 million per month. Anambra currently boasts the fewest political appointees across the country, and there is no official convoy for the governor’s wife. It is imperative to align with the standards of the people we govern, ensure accountability, and eliminate unnecessary expenditures and inefficiencies.
