Blaming opposition for hunger is ‘delusion’, Atiku tells Tinubu Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of blaming the opposition for the country’s economic hardship. He said the President was trying to evade responsibility for his administration’s policies. Tinubu had earlier on Saturday blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in the country while speaking at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off in Kaduna. “I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the President said.

We Have No Intention To Impose Any Traditional Ruler On Any Community -Soludo


Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo says his administration is not interested in imposing any traditional ruler on any community in the state.


Governor Soludo stated this at the Government House, Awka while presenting certificates of recognition to traditional rulers of four communities in the state.


The Traditional Rulers include Igwe Alexander Azike of Igbo-ukwu, Igwe Mkpuorah Ngini of Isuanaocha, Eze Augustine Nwangwu of Ajalli and Igwe Ikechukwu Ezeofor of Umuona. 


The Governor stated that the traditional rulers were popularly elected in their communities in accordance to their various constitutions. 


Governor Soludo recalled that a good number of communities in Anambra had caretaker committees when his administration came into power but under his leadership, they ensured communities conducted proper elections through the use Option A4 which so far has taken place in 110 communities. 


He emphasized that Anambra strictly operates under the traditional rulers' law, warning that anyone who is guilty of carrying themselves as traditional rulers when they are not recognized by the state is sanctionable under the law with a minimum of six months imprisonment.


The Commissioner for Local Government, Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, Mr. Tony-Collins Nawbunwanne pointed out that before now, there were lots of crisis in many communities in the state that range  from 20 to 30 years.


He noted that the Soludo administration does not compromise public interest for anything and gives fair hearing to all in line with the various constitutions in the communities while emphasizing that the new traditional rulers passed through the process at the community, town union and state levels, as they were subjected for clearance by security agencies.

 

The Chairman, South East Traditional Rulers' Council, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe advised the new traditional rulers not to destabilize their communities, but always listen to their subjects, saying that their enthronement is a great responsibility.
