Visit to Birmingham City University

Yesterday, October 17th, I visited Birmingham City University, where I met with the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. David Mbah. Prof. Mbah is one of only two Black Vice-Chancellors among over 160 universities in the United Kingdom — and, coincidentally, both are Nigerians. The prestigious Birmingham City University, established in 1843, boasts about 31,000 students from over 120 countries and a workforce of nearly 5,000 staff.

In a commendable effort to promote education, I was delighted to learn that, as part of its policy, the University extends varying degrees of scholarships to indigent students.

During our interaction, Prof. Mbah shared how he remains committed to upholding the flag of excellence at the University by delivering practical, skills-based education to students. Beyond providing diverse opportunities for success in life, he revealed that Birmingham City University stands as one of the leading institutions supporting minorities in the UK. Remarkably, more than half of the students at BCU are the first in their families to attend university — a reflection of the institution’s deep commitment to inclusive education.

I congratulated Prof. Mbah and his team of dedicated staff—especially the Nigerians among them—whose passion for excellence continues to propel the University forward. I reminded them that they are ambassadors of our dear nation and encouraged them to keep contributing meaningfully to Nigeria’s development.

Yesterday, Tuesday, 14th October, for the third time, I was delighted to honour the 3rd invitation to commission projects attracted by Honourable Lilian Orogbu, member representing Awka North and Awka South Federal Constituency, who continues to demonstrate what purposeful representation truly means.

The 1st was the commissioning of
7 new classroom blocks at a Secondary School in Achalla, and thereafter 6 classroom blocks at Okpuno, both in Awka North, to foster education in the State.

Education remains the most vital investment any society can make. I have always maintained that the most certain way to lift people out of poverty and build a productive nation is through investment in education and human capital development.
Nations that have prioritised education are those that have achieved lasting growth and stability.

We must continue to empower our young people through learning, creating opportunities, and building communities with knowledge.

I commend Hon. Prof. for her outstanding work and her dedication to the growth and development of her constituency. This is the kind of leadership we must continue to encourage, one that puts people first and places education at the heart of national progress.

A new is POssible.

Empowering the Girl Child: Securing Our Common Future

Today, as the world marks the International Day of the Girl Child, we are reminded of the immense potential that lies within every girl when she is given the right opportunities to learn, grow, and lead.

Sadly, in Nigeria today, more than 29 million children remain out of school, and the majority of them are girls. This grim reality confronts us with an uncomfortable truth: we are failing to safeguard the dreams and future of our daughters. A society that neglects its girls undermines its own progress and weakens the foundations of its future.

The empowerment of girls and women is the smartest investment any country can make. An educated girl becomes a pillar of stability in her family, a force for development in her community, and a beacon of hope for the nation.

We must, therefore, commit ourselves to deliberate action—bringing every girl back to school, protecting her from abuse and domestic violence, and ensuring that she has access to education, healthcare, and dignity. The strength of our nation will be measured by how well we nurture the dreams of our girls and give them the tools to achieve them.

When we educate a girl, we elevate a family; when we empower a girl, we transform a nation.

Let us, on this day, renew our resolve to build a Nigeria where every girl can dream freely, learn confidently, and contribute meaningfully to our shared destiny.

Happy International Day of the Girl Child.

Yesterday, 9th October, arrived in Abuja from Rome, where I had held a series of meetings earlier in the morning. Upon arrival, I was informed by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate for the AMAC Chairmanship election scheduled for February 21st, 2026 - Dr. Moses Paul () - about the plight of a public primary school in Tungan Nasara, FCT, that has been struggling with extremely poor toilet facilities.

In line with my continued commitment to investing in education across our dear nation, I immediately visited Tungan Nasara LEA Primary School in the FCT. I was deeply saddened by the deplorable condition of the facilities, especially the toilets, which pose serious health risks to both pupils and teachers. No child should be made to learn in such conditions.

As an initial intervention, I made a personal donation of ₦2 million to support the construction of proper toilet facilities and to improve the overall learning environment. I have also made a commitment to return and assess the progress of the work.

Our children are the future of our nation. Their learning environment must reflect the value we place on that future. As leaders, we must continue to prioritise education and the welfare of our young ones, ensuring that every Nigerian child has access to a decent education in a safe and healthy environment.

Education remains the most critical investment in our nation’s development.

A New Nigeria is POssible.
