Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Charles Soludo has again assured that the State government is ready to partner with the Nigerian Navy, including supporting interventions for greater mutual output and safer South East region.

Governor Soludo was speaking when the recently appointed Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla paid him a courtesy visit at the Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia.

The Governor revealed that notwithstanding the fact that the service does not take cognizance of ethnicity in making appointments but uphold the highest form of professionalism and hierarchy, Vice Admiral Ogalla’s appointment, he said, was greeted with much jubilation in the South East region and commended the President for the goodwill.

While commending the Navy and their formidable collaborations with other security agencies, Governor Soludo revealed that there is increased need for Navy presence in the State because of the oil theft and bunkering going on at the Ogwuikpele area of the state.

“It has become existential threat in the South east, but with your strategic appointment, there is this voice, to uproot the criminals and profile them for who they are.

Speaking earlier, Vice Admiral Ogalla recalled that the Naval Outpost in Onitsha was established with assistance from the state government, assuring that they will redouble their efforts to do more to ensure that peace returns in the region.

He decried a situation where sit at home persists and criminal gangs parade themselves as people who dictate what happens as an aberration with the tendency of drawing the region backwards
