Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, praised President Bola Tinubu for giving the South East “juicy portfolios” despite recording low votes in the region during the last presidential election.
Soludo reckoned that Tinubu giving the Ministry of Works to the South East was huge while saying “In politics, you don’t get what you deserve but what you bargain for with votes.”
He added, “Given the totality of votes we contributed from the southeast and looking at the ministerial portfolios, we may not have the basis to begin to demand for “juicy” portfolios but the president graciously gave us one of our finest and best, one of the few engineers who pioneered concrete pavement as current standard for road construction.
“What you said about the possibility of coming back again for us to move around in Anambra State will be fantastic because we have fundamental challenges on road infrastructure and especially how it’s delivered by the federal government.”
