Anambra Governor-elect, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, says his victory is “a by-product” of twelve years of relentless political struggle.
Soludo stated this in an acceptance speech after his declaration by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Wednesday as the winner of Saturday’s gubernatorial poll.

“For 12 years since the massive clamour by the people of Anambra for us to serve them, we persevered to this divine moment.
“This is a divine journey whose time has come. To God be all the glory and adoration,” the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria stated.
In the statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Awka on Wednesday, he said: “God was behind my victory.
“With utmost humility and gratitude to God, I accept the results of the 2021 Anambra governorship election as declared by INEC.
“This reflects the supreme will of the Almighty God and an overwhelming sacred mandate of the people.”
