Critic Says Soludo Missed Opportunity to Market Anambra at Delta Investment Summit

I believe Governor Charles Soludo missed an opportunity to promote Anambra State at the Delta State Investment Summit in Asaba. Rather than highlighting investment opportunities, I felt his remarks focused largely on his administration's record, including not borrowing, withdrawing from a World Bank loan, wearing made-in-Nigeria clothing and ending the sit-at-home order. In my view, the governor could have used the platform to discuss projects such as the proposed Anambra Mixed Industrial City and other opportunities available to investors. I also think the investment presentations by the governors of Abia and Imo at the Lagos State Investment Summit offered useful examples of how states can pitch themselves to potential investors. I have previously urged Governor Soludo to focus less on headlines and more on development. This summit, in my opinion, was another missed chance to market Anambra to investors.

What specific Anambra investment opportunities do you think should have been highlighted at the Delta summit?

I agree. Clear, sector-focused opportunities would have made the summit more useful for serious investors.

The criticism seems to be that the remarks stressed the administration's record, especially not borrowing, more than an investor-facing pitch.

Not borrowing can still be part of an investment message; it may signal fiscal discipline, even if it should not dominate the presentation.

Future summit appearances could pair government achievements with a clear list of sectors, projects, and reasons investors should consider Anambra.
