Former Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023
general elections, Peter Obi, says the future of Nigeria does not only depend
on competent leadership but also on quality education and healthcare.
This was as he called for investment in education, health,
and people to move Nigeria forward.
Obi made this call in a post on his official X handle on
Saturday to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Archbishop Charles Heerey College
of Health Sciences & Technology, Nkpor (ACHCOHSTEN), in Anambra State.
The former Anambra State governor said Nigeria was facing a
severe shortage of health professionals.
He emphasized that it was a challenge that is global but
even more urgent for the country.
The politician asked for training of more competent hands to
meet the rising demand at home and abroad.
“I urged the matriculating and graduating students to take
their studies seriously, seeing themselves as potential global citizens who can
make meaningful contributions to Nigeria’s healthcare system and to the world.
“Education remains the most transformative investment, and I
am always proud to meet graduates of ACHCOHSTEN excelling in the US, UK, and
elsewhere, who trace their journey back to my time as Governor.
“As a nation, we must continue to invest in education,
health, and people. The future of Nigeria depends not only on leaders with
competence and integrity but also on institutions that build capacity for the
common good,” he said.
