Peter Obi Donates N10 Million to Nursing College in Kogi State

Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general election, has donated N10 million to Grimard College of Nursing Sciences. Obi, a staunch advocate for educational and healthcare reform, made the donation during a visit to the college on Monday.

During his visit, Obi emphasized the critical need for Nigeria to invest aggressively in essential areas of development. “Nigeria remains undeveloped because we have not aggressively invested in the critical areas of development, which are health, education, and pulling people out of poverty,” Obi remarked.
