The Anambra State Deputy Governor, Dr. OnyekaChukwu Ibezim today August 7, inaugurated the Solution Continues Team, charging its members to align their activities with the vision of the state Governor, Prof. Chukuma Soludo for a greater Anambra.
The deputy governor, who spoke during the inauguration at the Government House, Awka, described the group’s assignment as onerous and government-driven, urging members to demonstrate ownership, responsibility and commitment in supporting the administration’s development agenda.
Dr. Ibezim stressed that the group was not a pressure, breakaway or splinter group, but a team of “comrades in progress” expected to take the government’s message and development initiatives to the grassroots.
He urged the members to emulate Governor Soludo’s solution-oriented approach to governance, noting that the governor is constantly concerned about what remains to be done rather than only celebrating achievements.
“There is no money to share. So, if you want to eat, you must work,” Dr Ibezim said, charging the members to focus on service and productivity.
Earlier, the Coordinator of the group and Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Political Matters, Hon. Chinedu Ofojebe that the group had already commenced activities but needed formal inauguration to fully commence its grassroots operations.

Amidst the presence of the Deputy Chief of Staff to the Governor and Chief of Staff to office of the Deputy Governor, Dr Okechi Egbuna,the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on legal matters Barr. CC Chukwudi, the group was formally inaugurated.
