By Chizoba Okeke 


Anambra State House of Assembly has passed a resolution commending Governor Chukwuma Soludo for extending free educational policy to Senior  Secondary School students in the state public schools.


The resolution was passed following a motion moved by the member representing Aguata Constituency One, Mr Anayo Okpaleke and Chairman House committee on Education.


The Speaker, Mr Somtoo Udeze who presided over plenary read out the resolution and the lawmakers unanimously adopted it through voice vote.


In his submissions,  Okpaleke noted that Governor Soludo had earlier granted free education from Nursery, Primary and Junior Secondary Schools (JSS 3) to pupils and students of all State Public Schools and also  extended the same to Senior Secondary School Students in Public Schools. 


He reiterated that access to quality education equips beneficiaries with the necessary tools to excel and take their destinies into their hand, thereby ensuring effective use of their talents for all round development and progress.


He further explained the governor's free education policy has now opened windows of opportunities as evidenced by the upsurge in school enrolment of pupils and students in the state public schools, breaking the cycle of social and economic barriers as well as poverty. 


In support of the motion,  the member representing Aguata Constituency Two, Chief Tony Muobike, his Ogbaru Constituency One counterpart, Noble Igwe and the Deputy Majority Leader, Dr. Jude Akpua, expressed their approval of the governor's initiative, saying it has brought positive revolution to the state


Similarly, the House passed the report of the House  Committee On Finance and Appropriation on the 2025-2027 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF),  Economic and Fiscal Update (EFU), Fiscal Strategy Paper (FSP) and Budget Policy Statement (BPS) document.


The documents outline the state's fiscal plans, economic outlook, and budgetary goals for the next three years and sets a strategic foundation for sustainable growth and responsible budgeting.
