Peter Obi and Prof. Ozuah Donate N25M to Support Rural Healthcare in Anambra
Peter Obi, former Anambra State governor, continued his nationwide focus on critical sectors like health, education, and poverty alleviation with a recent visit to a healthcare facility in Mmiata, Anambra East.
The hospital, managed by the Immaculate Heart Sisters under the IHM Health System, serves as the only healthcare provider for the remote Mmiata-Anam community.
Obi, alongside Nigerian philanthropist Prof. Ferdinand Ozuah, donated N25 million to the facility to support its ongoing efforts to provide quality healthcare in rural areas. This follows a previous donation of N75 million made by Obi and Prof. Ozuah last year to the IHM Specialist Hospital in Nkpor.
The hospital in Mmiata, which Obi handed over to the Immaculate Heart Sisters during his tenure as governor, has been significantly expanded over the years. It now stands as a lifeline for the community, offering essential services to those who would otherwise have limited access to healthcare.
Obi emphasized his belief in investing in critical areas like health and education, stating that these efforts, along with support for small businesses, are vital for national development. He also reaffirmed his commitment to extending similar support to institutions across the country.
He praised the Immaculate Heart Sisters and the hospital staff for their dedication to serving underserved communities, describing their work as a key part of building a healthier and more productive nation.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
