Invoking the iconic Cuban tradition where children declare “We want to be like Che” in honour of revolutionary leader Che Guevara, Chidoka called for a similar vision in Anambra state.

“We must begin to think in generational terms. Like the children of Cuba who saw Che as a model of courage and purpose. Our children should look up to leaders like Soludo—First Class brain, former CBN Governor, global thinker, and a committed public servant. That is the future I want for Anambra.”

Chidoka further commended Soludo’s focus on education, revealing their joint efforts in developing a model for free basic education across the state. He described education as the most powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty and praised the governor’s commitment to making quality education accessible to every child at both primary and secondary school levels.

He described the law as “a national template for proactive, morally grounded, and technologically enabled security governance.”

“There are no sentiments here,” Chidoka concluded. “Governor Soludo is the kind of man I want my son to emulate. He is the standard-bearer for the Anambra of tomorrow—and that is why I fully support his re-election.”
