Obi said the donation is part of his commitment to caring for the less previleged in the society.
Part of the statement reads, “In my commitment to caring for people, especially the less privileged, and in continually investing in the critical areas of national development, I visited a remote community, Obinofia Ndiagu in Ezeagu Local Govt Area of Enugu State, during the week and donated N10 million to help equip the Dominic Health Centre in the area”.
“The Bishop of Enugu Diocese, Most Rev Callistus Onaga, had two years ago notified me about the desperate need to build a primary health center in the area because they had access to none”.
“I graciously responded and contributed to building the health center. When the appeal came that the building had been completed, but not yet equipped, I decided to visit the community again to lend my support in equipping the primary health center”.
“We must understand the crucial significance of this primary healthcare Centre to the community where access to healthcare was previously unavailable. It was a long difficult journey going there, but I was glad I made it”.
“Though things are difficult, we should all continue to contribute to the,w, c , development of the nation by investing in these critical areas ofnjjj human development; health r, education, and lifting people out of poverty, which will better the lives of our people”.
“In our country Nigeria, no one should be left behind in our developmental journey”
