The First Lady of Anambra State, Dr Nonye Soludo, has been awarded First Lady of the Year (Health-Care and Child Support) at the 2025 Nigerian Humanitarian Awards and Magazine.
The award ceremony, held on Friday night, followed a nationwide nomination and voting process that saw participation from thousands of Nigerians and humanitarian observers across the country.

“Last night in Abuja, I received the award as Nigeria’s First Lady of the Year (Healthcare & Child Support), courtesy of Humanitarian Awards, Magazine & Summit,” she said.
Reflecting on her journey, she added “What began over 19 years ago as a simple passion has transformed into a massive crusade. I’m deeply grateful for the grace of consistency and the unwavering support.”
Dr Soludo dedicated the award to her “Healthy Living Family” and the children of Anambra, saying.
“To everyone who joins me each Saturday for our health workouts, and to the beautiful children whose futures have been impacted by this initiative this award is for you. You are the pride of what we do.”
