The people of Anambra state have elected Charles Chukwuma Soludo as their next governor, offering the topmost position to a man whose record of accomplishments dwarfed other contestants.

Soludo would not have become what he is today without the efforts of his father. If not for anything, for the fact that his father was responsible for bringing him into this world.

Today, Soludo has given his father his due, finding time to celebrate him despite the hectic schedule of election.

In a post on his Instagram page the governor-elect wrote:

"This is my Father. He will be 90 in a matter of days. The BBC News Pidgin crew (@bbcnewspidgin) captured this moment last Sunday. For this very picture, I lack the right kind of words to describe the emotions it elicits. I love you papa."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had reported that in reaction to the declaration of Soludo as the governor elect of Anambra, Nigerians on social media have sent encouraging words to the governor-elect.

"A monumental loss by the APC, who should use this (and what happened in Edo) as a yardstick to measure what awaits them in 2023, should they go for candidates that do not appeal to the voting masses. On PYO/Rufai or PYO/Zulum we stand."

"Congratulations Prof, it is not only the victory at the election but victory at the service'' of the Anambra people. May God bless you with the requisite strength to do the right thing throughout your tenure as the governor of your state.

"Sir, to succeed, beware of sycophants who will only praise you even when failure is obvious just because of whatever they want to gain. Four years or eight years as the case may be is just tommorow. Consider your life after office and let the development of your people be a priority. Best wishes sir
