For a quarter-century since his departure from the bank in 1996, Pa Simeon Soludo had been an unwavering cornerstone of leadership within his community.
A stalwart figure, he had lent his guidance and support not only to the local community but also to the Roman Catholic Church within the Awka Diocese.
His commitment spanned across various avenues of service, embodying the essence of a dedicated community leader.
In his enduring affiliation with the Scouts Association of Nigeria, where he held the esteemed status of a life member, trainer, and leader, Pa Simeon stood as an icon of untiring dedication.
Additionally, his role as a National Patron of the Man of Order (MOD) voluntary service organization within the Catholic Church showcased his continued commitment to benevolence and communal welfare.
The year 2007 marked a significant milestone as he was inducted into the esteemed Nze na Ozo Society of Title Holders in the Isuofia Community.
Adorned with the distinguished chieftaincy title of Akukananwa, which translates to “wealth is greater in children,” Pa Simeon embodied a profound philosophy.
To him, one’s true wealth and stature are not merely measured by material possessions but rather by the calibre and character of his offspring.
His belief echoes the notion that a person’s greatness is defined by the quality of their legacy, the impact they leave, and the following they inspire.
In this regard, God lavishly blessed Akukananwa, amplifying his eminence through his children.
