By Rose Oranye
Anambra State Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefor, says the Ministry is committed towards ensuring that Ndi Anambra at home are fully aware of the achievements and intentions of Governor Soludo’s government.
The Commissioner disclosed this when he paid a courtesy visit to the wife of the governor , Dr. Nonye Soludo, at the Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia.
He said that was why the ministry introduced a multi-radio station programme, “Ask the Commissioner”., adding that every week, the programme will feature at least one commissioner who will discuss the achievements and activities of his ministry, departments and agencies under the commissioner.
He pledged the ministry’s readiness to promote the First Lady’s Healthy Living pet project.
Dr. Mefor used the visit to infoy the First Lady of the reforms he had embarked on to reposition the ministry for better information dissemination and management to achieve strategic communication for the government of Anambra State.
“Our main aim is the attainment of strategic communication, which will lead to better perception management for Governor Soludo and his government. The ministry is repositioning for this, and several programmes are also being introduced for the purpose. For example, the ministry just introduced The Solution Weekly Bulletin to fully report the activities and achievements of the Soludo government. We are targeting Ndi Anambra outside the state with the bulletin.
“To also ensure that Ndi Anambra at home are fully aware of the achievements and intentions of Governor Soludo’s government, the ministry has introduced a multi-radio station programme, “Ask the Commissioner”. Every week, the programme will feature at least one commissioner who will discuss the achievements and activities of his ministry, departments and agencies under the commissioner.
“The Ministry of Information and the Ministry of Local Government Affairs and Chieftaincy Matters have also planned a Town Hall meeting in the 21 local governments in the state, where Ndi Igwe, the presidents-general, market, women, youth leaders, and other critical stakeholders will interact and share views on the efforts of the government towards a prosperous and livable Anambra by the Soludo administration.
On “Healthy Living with Nonye Soludo”, the pet project of the First Lady, Dr. Mefor described it as apt and noble: “Sound mind in a sound body is not possible unless one pays attention to lifestyle, which is a duty. I will join the Saturday workouts and get the Ministry of Information to begin sensitising Ndi Anambra on the benefits of healthy living, exercise, sports, and so on,” Dr Mefor said.
The First Lady, Mrs Nonye Soludo, thanked the Information Commissioner for the visit and promise of collaboration. She expressed delight with the ministry’s achievements within the short period Dr Mefor had spent as commissioner and for his determination and commitment to a new information order in the state and better perception management for the Soludo administration.
The First Lady later gifted the Commissioner some literatures on the Healthy Living project.
