Soludo Advises Anambra Youths to Avoid Quick-Money Scams, Promotes Perseverance and Diligence Instead
Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo, advises youths against the pursuit of quick wealth and encourages hard work as the path to success. Speaking at an event organized by the Anambra State Civic and Social Reformation Office (ANCISRO) in Awka, the state capital, Soludo's representative, Law Mefor, the state Commissioner for Information, stressed the need for persistence, discipline, and focus in order to achieve personal growth.
The governor's sentiments echoed his concerns about the recent surge in the appeal for quick wealth in society and the increase in internet fraud. He told the audience that there are numerous opportunities to develop themselves under the current administration without resorting to unethical means.
Soludo emphasized that hard work was the only assured route to success and discouraged young people from envying fraudsters, whom he urged not to consider as role models. He encouraged the youth to explore opportunities in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector, as well as other avenues, to boost their knowledge and excel in their chosen fields.
Notably, Soludo's administration has introduced several initiatives to promote youth development, going beyond the promotion of hard work and ICT. These initiatives include sports development, leadership and skills training, transformation of educational infrastructure, and a focus on youth engagement in governance and community development. These efforts aim to foster teamwork, discipline, and leadership skills among young people, as well as holistic education, entrepreneurship, and active citizenship.
Under Soludo's leadership, Anambra State has received recognition from notable national figures, including President Bola Tinubu, who has acknowledged the state's progress and the administration's commitment to transformational governance. The administration also uses social media and public events to highlight opportunities for youth participation in governance and community development.
- President Bola Tinubu, during a general news briefing, commended the strides made by Anambra State under the leadership of Governor Charles Soludo in areas such as education-and-self-development and youth engagement.
- In the realm of Naija politics, Soludo's administration is renowned for its decisive approach to tackle crime-and-justice, a vital aspect of his transformational governance efforts in Nigeria.
- Despite the appeals for quick wealth and the allure of internet fraud, Governor Soludo encourages youths to pursue opportunities in sectors like ICT, sports development, and leadership training for holistic growth, instead of emulating the questionable practices of some fraudsters.
- The ongoing efforts in Anambra State, under the guidance of Soludo, are aimed at fostering a sense of self-development, discipline, and teamwork among the youth, ultimately equipping them with the skills needed to navigate challenges such as war-and-conflicts and politics, while contributing positively to the Nigerian society.
