Death has hit Governor Soludo of Anambra State.

This online news platform understands that Joe Anatune, leader of his media team during last year’s election, died on Saturday, few days after his 62nd birthday, and a little over a week after he bagged a government appointment, after tirelessly working for Soludo’s victory last year.

The Chief Press Secretary to Soludo, Mr Christian Aburime, in a press release, said the Governor received the news of Mr Joe Anatune’s sudden death with deep pains and shock.

His words: “Soludo described Joe Anatune as one of the foremost Apostles of the Soludo project with an uncommon strength and courage to deliver on any given assignment.

“He stated further that Joe’s personal sacrifices during his electioneering campaign were not only exceptional but highly commendable.”

“He spearheaded the Soludo Promoters Forum (SPF) and for two years used the platform to engage the professionals into mainstream politics. The government and the good people of Anambra State will sorely miss Joe Anatune,” Aburime said.

Governor Soludo’s CPS added that Governor Soludo had since commiserated with Anatune’s wife, Mrs Ify Anatune, and children, the Anatune family, and Awa community over the sudden loss of their illustrious son.”
