The Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has inaugurated a 250-bed capacity female hostel in Community High School, Akwaeze, Anaocha Local Government Area (LGA).

The governor during the inauguration also laid the foundation stone of the male hostel, and inspected the equipped science laboratories, an e-library, a multi-purpose hall, an ICT hub and a 60 KVA diesel-powered generator also donated by the foundation to the school.

He commended Chief Okafor for the initiatives, describing him as a great son of the soil, who is not just a blessing to the people of Akwaeze town but to the entire Anambra State.

``We have come to celebrate you while you are still alive because you are living a life with purpose," he said.
