The Anambra State government has announced plans to build 30 new primary schools across communities, following a report identifying areas lacking public primary and secondary schools.
In a statement released on Thursday, the State’s Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, said the project and other key decisions were made during the 22nd Anambra State Executive Council meeting held at the “Light House” in Awka on Wednesday.
Mefor noted that several important decisions were taken during the meeting, including an assessment of the November 8, 2025, governorship election in which Governor Chukwuma Soludo was re-elected.
He stated that Soludo’s extraordinary victory across all 21 local government areas proves that electoral success stems from delivering value and development to the people.
Part of the statement read: “The Council committed to rededicate themselves to duty and to finish strong, while expressing gratitude to Ndi Anambra for their faith in Soludo and for their excellent conduct before, during, and after the election.
“The Council adopted the 2026–2028 Medium Term Expenditure Framework, paving the way for the 2026 Annual Budget to be presented to the Anambra State House of Assembly, ensuring that the 2026 Appropriations Bill is assented to by December 31, 2026, at the latest.”
The statement added that the initiative will strengthen the impact of the Solution Government’s education programmes and ensure that every community benefits from the Soludo administration’s free education policy.
