Peter Obi Donates Laptops and Printer to Support Education in Adamawa
Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate and former governor of Anambra State, has expressed his strong commitment to supporting education in Nigeria.
In a post shared on his X handle, Obi highlighted his recent visit to the Almajiri school in Yola, followed by a meeting with the students of Saint Augustine College in Mayo-Belwa, Adamawa State.
During the visit, Obi provided essential learning equipment, including 10 laptops and a printer, to aid the students in improving their computer science and information technology skills.
Obi emphasized that providing students with the right tools and resources for learning is not just a duty but a critical necessity for securing a better future for the country.
He noted that education is a key pillar in the development of any nation, and empowering students with access to modern technology is crucial for bridging the growing digital divide in Nigeria.
The students’ enthusiasm for learning, according to Obi, was truly inspiring.
He shared that witnessing the eagerness of the students to engage with the new equipment was both motivating and encouraging.
Obi believes that initiatives like the one he launched in Adamawa are vital for fostering innovation and excellence within Nigerian schools, particularly in the fields of technology and computer science, which are becoming increasingly essential in the modern world.
“Supporting education by equipping students with the right tools and resources is not just a responsibility but a necessity for building a better future,” Obi wrote.
He continued, saying that projects like this are essential for bridging the digital divide, an issue that has become more evident in a world where technology is key to success in almost every sector.
By providing access to modern tools, Obi aims to empower the next generation of Nigerians with the skills they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world.
Senate President Godswill Akpabio has expressed strong confidence in President Bola Tinubu’s chances of dominating the 2027 presidential election. Speaking at a grand reception in Uyo to welcome Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno into the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akpabio said he believed Tinubu would secure 99.9% of the votes in the upcoming election.
Governor Eno recently left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the APC, blaming unresolved leadership issues within his former party for the switch. Akpabio, addressing the crowd, praised Eno’s political journey, noting how difficult it was for him to become governor. But he assured him that with his new political alignment, things would take a different turn.
He boldly predicted that Eno would become the first governor in the state’s history to be re-elected in 2027, adding that both the governor and President Tinubu were in for a smooth political ride moving forward.
Catholics across Benue State came together on Thursday in a heartfelt prayer walk, seeking God’s help for peace to return to the troubled region. The walk, which drew large crowds from different parishes, was marked by hymns, placards, and quiet reflection. Priests, religious groups, and lay faithful joined in solidarity as they moved through the streets.
They also prayed for the victims of the recent violence, including those killed in the attack on Yelwata, Guma Local Government Area, where many lives were lost. Those who took part in the procession spoke out about the rising insecurity and called for healing, unity, and a renewed sense of justice in the state.
The recent surprise visit to Benue State by President Bola Tinubu has stirred many reactions from the public.
It was reported that some school children who were outside were urged to welcome the president under the rain.
It was also noted that what started as a simple welcome turned into a political rally for the President and the Governor of the state.
This gained many criticisms from the public, especially online, as they shared their thoughts on the visit and the welcome. Many highlighted the fact that it was meant to be a condolence visit and not a celebratory event.
