The fomer Governor of Anambra State, His Excellency, Peter Gregory Onwubuasi Obi has once again demonstrated what giving back to the society actually means.
In his own chosen philosophy, he had decided to be investing in 3 critical areas of the society, thus : Health, education and poverty alleviation.
However, he seems to be having more serious passion for Mission schools of Nursing Sciences as he keeps pumping millions into several Nursing schools across the Nation.
He visited the college of Nursing Sciences and the school of Medical laboratory Technicians.
One may begin to ask, if other politicians who only come out only once in 4 years begin to do half of what Peter Obi is doing, imagine the impact it would have on the health sectors across Nigeria.
He wrote below :
“Yesterday, I visited the College of Nursing Sciences and the School of Medical Laboratory Technicians at Bishop Shanahan Specialist Hospital, Nsukka—the only institution of its kind in the senatorial zone.
Like many other critical health and educational institutions across the country, I have remained steadfast in my support for Shanahan College of Nursing Sciences and the School of Medical Laboratory Technicians, contributing over N100 million to their growth and development over the past four years.
On arriving at the College, I was delighted to learn that it has been upgraded and accredited by the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) to award National Diplomas and Higher National Diplomas. I was also pleased to see their expanded infrastructure and the increasing number of students benefiting from quality education.
While interacting with the students, I encouraged them to remain steadfast in their studies, as education will open doors to global opportunities and equip them to contribute to a healthier Nigeria. To further support their development, I donated an additional N20 million to the College.
My ultimate vision remains the development of a nation driven by high human capital, ensuring a better quality of life through strategic investments in key areas of human development of education, healthcare and pulling people out of poverty.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
