At the College of Nursing Sciences in Adazi-Nnukwu, Obi reiterated his dedication to supporting institutions that nurture skill, professionalism, and character.

Addressing the trend of skilled nurses emigrating for better opportunities, he advised those who choose to return once the country is reformed, adding that he and like-minded individuals are committed to achieving this vision.

For those staying back, he hoped they would ultimately use their talents to contribute to Nigeria’s progress.

In response, Bishop Paulinus Ezeokafor, an essential proprietor of the university (with Peter Cardinal Okpaleke) and the nursing college, expressed heartfelt gratitude to Obi for his steadfast commitment to education.

Calling Obi the “Father of Education” in Anambra, he praised Obi’s pivotal role in transforming education in the state, notably through the return of schools to the Church. This move revitalised both infrastructure and academic standards.

The Vice Chancellor of Peter University, Rev. Fr. Prof. Emmanuel Umezinwa, thanked Obi for his continued support. He highlighted Obi’s contributions to the university, particularly his sponsorship of the entrepreneurship centre, which aims to equip students with practical skills for self-reliance and innovation.

Obi was accompanied on the visit by his former Chief of Staff, Prof. Chinyere Stella Okunna, reflecting a solid partnership in promoting education and societal development in Anambra State.
