In its first session post-gubernatorial election, the Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC), yesterday, decided to build 30 new schools across the State.

The session which is the 22nd took several other significant decisions while also rating the just concluded gubernatorial election which returned the incumbent governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, for a second term, as ‘‘excellent.’’

In a statement yesterday, the State’s Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefo, listed the significant decisions including the adopted of the 2026-2028 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF).

He stated: ‘‘The Council examined the November 8, 2025, Anambra State governorship election, in which Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo CFR, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), was decisively re-elected by an extraordinary 73% of the votes, winning in 21 of the 21 local government areas.

‘‘The Council stated that this proves the hypothesis that electoral success results from providing value and development to a people.
‘‘The Council committed to rededicate themselves to duty and to finish strong, and they also expressed gratitude to Ndi Anambra for their faith in Governor Soludo and for their excellent conduct before, during, and after the governorship election.
‘‘The Council adopted the 2026-2028 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), which paved the way for the 2026 Annual Budget to be presented to the Anambra State House of Assembly to guarantee that the 2026 Appropriations Bill is assented to by December 31st, 2026, at the latest.
‘‘The Council agreed to build an additional thirty new primary schools across communities after receiving the report of communities lacking public primary and secondary schools.
‘‘This will deepen the impact of the education programmes of the Solution Government and ensure that every community in the state benefits from the Soludo administration’s free education policy’’.
