Governor-elect of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo, has called for applications expressing interest from those wishing to serve under his administration.

A statement by his 80-man Transution Committee members, signed by its Executive Director on behalf of the Chairperson, called “for expression of interest: Anambra State Political Appointments.”

Soludo’s approach is far from the norm. People don’t usually apply for political appointments.  They are just  appointed, mostly on recommendations by political  godfathers and political parties. But Soludo is bent on being different.

When the mode was initially made public, not a few people thought that he was playing to the gallery. But he has followed it up by advertising for expression of interest.

Some people believe that not many people will apply since it is also said that applicants will go through a written test and oral interview. Said a source who spoke to this medium: “Who wants to take an examination and fail and be ridiculed?”

It is believed that Soludo opted for this method to completely get every pressure off him. Nobody will approach him with anybody’s curriculum vitae.

Some people insist he has already chosen those to work with. They, however, agree that having made this public, he is prepared to work with only the best, and would take absolute responsibility for any below-performance in his administration.

The application is open only to the indigenes of the State, and will close on February 28, 2022.

Following is the full text of the call for expression of interest as put out.
