“In times like these, it is crucial for us to come together in support of those affected, offering our compassion, assistance, and our hands and hearts to help rebuild lives and restore hope,” Soludo said.
During his visit, Governor Soludo also paid a courtesy call on the Palace of the Shehu of Borno.
The Anambra State Governor prayed for God’s strength and solace to be upon the victims as they navigate this difficult journey.
