Category:  Nigeria News

Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, on Friday played host to his school teacher, Dr. Angela Mebirim, who taught him during his primary three days in Enugu.

Mebirim, who hails from Mbaise in Imo State, was said to have lived in the same neighbourhood with the governor’s family during their days in Nigercem quarters, Enugu.

Mebirim, who described Soludo as an “exceptional” pupil while she taught him, said the governor never failed anything in the class.

She said, “He never failed anything in the class. He was extremely brilliant, almost a genius. I am happy that I am here today. It is an honour.

“I am grateful to God for elevating him to this position. Honestly, I didn’t know I would be alive to witness this kind of privilege, not in my wildest imagination.”

She commended him for the on-going teachers’ recruitment exercise in the state, which was done largely online.

“We saw it in the news, how you are transparently employing teachers in the state. It’s only God that will bless you,” she further added.
