The Manager of St. Kizito Secondary
School, Umudioka, Anambra State, Rev. Fr. Nonso Okoye, has described the
immediate past Governor of the state, Mr. Peter Obi, as the best Governor since
the state was created. Fr. Nonso was speaking at the weekend when Mr. Peter Obi
paid a visit to St. Kizito, which was one of the schools he returned to the
Church in 2010.
In the cleric’s words, “Mr. Peter
Obi has remained my best Governor since the inception of Anambra State. When he
was the Governor, he touched every nook and cranny of the state. In the health
sector, he did wonders in the state. In the area of road construction, he made
Anambra to be a state with the best network of roads. He remains the only
Governor in Anambra State that did not leave debts and arrears of salaries at
the time he handed over. In the area of education, oh, he was exceptional,
which all of us, including our school, can testify to. Obi has remained an
icon, an institution. The way he treats people manifestly shows him as a good
man.”
Speaking later, Obi thanked the
cleric, staff and students of the school. He, however, reminded them that they
must at all times strive to match the infrastructural improvement of the school
with good performances and being many notches ahead of others in values,
manners and morals so that when they graduate from the school, they would be
intellectually and morally fit to conquer the world.
The highlight of the visit was the
presentation of a cheque for a million naira to the school for continued
infrastructural development.
Speaking on behalf of the students,
the Senior Prefect of the school, Miss Onochie Perpetua, said that the visit
would remain green in the memories of students. He thanked Obi for remaining a
noble role model in Nigeria and assured him that the students would always
abide by his fatherly advice at all times.
