Peter Obi Donates 20 Million to Hospital in Enugu

 Former Governor of Anambra state and presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Mr Peter Obi, has donated the sum of 20 million naira to the Faith Foundation Mission Hospital owned by the Nsukka Diocese of the Anglican Communion in Enugu State. The donation which is intended to aid the building of a college of nursing sciences, is in line with Mr Peter Obi's commitment to investing in critical areas of national development including health, education, and poverty eradication.

Announcing his donation via his official Twitter handle, Mr Peter Obi wrote: "Over the weekend, I visited Nsukka in Enugu State, where I donated N20 million to the Faith Foundation Mission Hospital, Nsukka. This is in line with my consistent commitment to investing in the most critical areas of national development, namely: health, education, and poverty eradication. The donation is my initial support to the hospital through the Anglican Bishop of Nsukka, Rt Rev. Aloysius Agbo, to help them commence the building of a College of Nursing Sciences Healthcare workers are at the centre of Primary Healthcare delivery, which is the foundation of any credible healthcare systems. We must, therefore, take the training of healthcare workers more seriously, especially now that our dear nation and the global world are running short of these healthcare professionals. I thank the Bishop and his entire team at Faith Foundation Hospital for making this bold move to set up a College of Nursing Sciences.  I'll continue to support in projects that will bring development to our nation and be beneficial to Nigerians, for in so doing, we will be able to build the New Nigeria of our dreams."
