Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo has, given his daughter’s hand in marriage.
The former CBN governor made this known in an appreciation post on his X handle following the wedding of his eldest daughter Ifeatu Soludo to Software Engineer, Arinze Ibekwe.
Soludo disclosed that the marriage is the first in 142 years of his family history.
Appreciating the guest of the wedding which took place at his hometown, Isuofia, Soludo urged the newly wedded to take cue from his 31 years of martial bliss.
“I celebrate this historic event for two reasons. First, God has graciously blessed the larger Soludo family with another such marital union after 142 years (by my estimate).
“This is largely due to the fact that female children have been a rarity in the past three generations of the Soludo family. To break that “jinx,” God has mercifully provided me with four beautiful daughters, whom I celebrate every day.
“Lastly, I am happy to have gained another son in Arinze Ibekwe. I will continue to pray for God’s choicest blessings upon them and admonish them to take a cue from the 31 years of marital bliss I continue to enjoy with my lovely wife.
“I thank my friends and all who came from different parts of the world to celebrate with my family.
May God continue to bless and keep you all for better and bigger celebrations.” Soludo wrote.
