Anambra Commissioner for Homeland affairs, Chief Chikodi Anarah has resigned.

 

Anarah is the second Commissioner to leave Governor Charles Soludo’s cabinet after the former Commissioner of Information, Sir Paul Nwosu.

 

The rssignation of Anarah may not be unconnected with insecurity in the State despite the launch of two security outfits, ‘Aginechemba’ and ‘Operation Udo Ga Achi’

 

Though the outfits have made some inroads by fighting the native doctors alleged to have been involved in the rising insecurity in the State, kidnappings and armed robbery have not abated.

 

A source from the Government House, confided in The Nation Anarah was asked to resign as a form of soft landing by Soludo

“So, during the last Executive council meeting, the commissioner tendered his resignation letter, as he has been made redundant since the appointment of a Special Adviser on community security.

 

“Technically, Anara was sacked the moment Prince Ken Emeakayi was appointed Special Adviser on Community Security,” the source said.

 

The source added: “Ken Emeakayi is working silently and has recorded huge success in their operations so far.

 

” So, there was no need to keep another person for the same role.

“Governor Soludo prefers to give officials a “soft landing” by allowing them to resign rather than being openly sacked.”

  1. No long roads.
    No overexplaining.
    Only what matters, when it matters.

    Fresh signals.
    Clear mechanics.
    Moments that feel right — not forced.

    This is where rhythm meets timing,
    and timing quietly turns into advantage.

    You scroll — you get it.
    You stay — you feel it.
