Peter Obi Extends Monetary Support to Four Educational Institutions in Kaduna State
Below are excerpts of the post the former governor of Anambra State and LP Presidential candidate in the 2023 election, made on his social media profiles.
"Today, I continued my show of support and encouragement to critical areas of human development in our society with a visit to four educational Institutions in Kaduna state. The visit was in line with my unwavering commitment to investing in our people through education, healthcare, and human capital development"
"First, I visited the Muhammad Sambo Memorial Islamic Institute founded by Sheikh Yusuf Sambo Rigachukwu. I gave my support to the school and assured them that I will always be available and committed to supporting their efforts, now and in the future"
"I then visited the Madarasatul Hidayyatul Auladi Muslimima Almajiri School in Kawo, where I have previously visited about 5 times to assist the schoolโs developmental projects and studies. I gave an additional donation of โฆ5 million, as I have always insisted that no child deserves to be left behind, when it comes to education, and no matter their location, we can take education to them as this is the key index of pulling our people out of poverty"
After that, I proceeded to Womenhood College of Health Sciences and Technology, Kaduna, where I also donated โฆ5 million, recognising the critical role the institution plays in training and empowering women in health-related fields, especially in our rural communities.
Finally, I visited St. Geraldโs College of Nursing Sciences and gave โฆ10 million in support to assist their efforts in building competent and compassionate nurses. While speaking to the students, I emphasised that when we invest in education and healthcare, weโre not just building schools or hospitals, we are building the future of a secure, productive, and united Nigeria.
I pray we as leaders understand that leadership is not about the title you hold, but about the lives touched. That is the leadership Nigeria needs.
Let us continue to build a nation where no child is left behind, regardless of region, religion, or background.
A New Nigeria is POssible.
