Anambra First Lady urges residents to prioritise health, wellbeing

Nonye Soludo, wife of the Anambra State Governor, has called on residents to make their health and overall wellbeing a top priority, asserting that good health is the most significant investment one can make and the bedrock of a productive life.

As the founder of the non-governmental organization Healthy Living with Nonye Soludo, she encouraged individuals to embrace a comprehensive self-care strategy. This approach should integrate physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of wellbeing to mitigate the prevalence of preventable lifestyle-related diseases.

In a statement issued on Monday, Soludo shared her routine health and fitness message, stressing that proper nourishment enables individuals to think, move, work, love, and sleep well. She highlighted that every aspiration, relationship, and accomplishment is contingent upon one's general wellbeing. "Your health is your greatest investment," she stated. "Too often, we take our bodies for granted, pushing through exhaustion and ignoring the signs that something needs attention. Yet, every dream, every relationship and every achievement depends on your overall wellbeing. Don’t wait until your health begins to fail before you value it. Make caring for yourself a daily routine and priority because when your foundation is strong, every other part of your life has the opportunity to flourish and function better. Let that guide you as you begin this brand-new amazing week."

This advice follows a Healthy Living Walk Soludo led in February across Anambra communities. The event aimed to promote physical fitness and raise awareness about healthy eating and disease prevention. During the walk, she underscored that physical fitness and healthy eating serve as effective preventive measures against conditions like cardiovascular disease, emphasizing the importance of proper nutrition for all age groups.
