Thursday, January 23, 2025 - The Anambra State governor’s wife, Mrs Nonye Soludo, has vowed to follow up closely on the case of a man who allegedly set his wife on fire in Abagana, Njikoka Local Government Area over a case of infidelity.
The governor’s wife said she will follow up on the matter until full
justice is served on the man, who was identified as Sunday Nwka.
While receiving details of the incident from the Commissioner for Women
and Children Affairs, Mrs Ify Obinabo and her health counterpart, Dr Afam
Obidike, Mrs Soludo said the matter will not be swept under the table.
She had directed the duo to immediately visit the scene of the incident,
and asked to be updated frequently on the matter.
Mrs Soludo said: “I will see to the end of the case, to ensure that the
full justice must be made to take prime place in the whole process.
“This present administration takes issues of domestic violence and
abuses as serious crimes, and no one who is found guilty of such offences would
be let to walk free.”
The governor’s wife further expressed strong disappointment at the
rising cases of violence and abuses in homes and re-issued her long-term call
for serious social reformation, beginning with a systemic approach to fighting
drug use and related problems.
She added that the state government will now find the best approach to
take care of the family’s five children.
