Yesterday, I had the pleasure and honour of addressing a joint session of students at two Universities in the United Kingdom, Cambridge University and Anglia Ruskin University, where I shared ideas on “African Leadership’s Role in Fostering Global Citizenship and
Social Responsibility". In the interaction, I discussed global citizenship which entails acknowledging our shared humanity, the inter-connectedness of our existence that transcends geographical, cultural, and ideological divides, while mentioning the critical roles of leadership in promoting inclusivity, tolerance, and collaboration globally and in raising global leaders who advance the cause of humanity.

Just like other progressive nations of the world, Nigeria, and indeed Africa, will achieve global citizenship for the people through critical investments in human development, measured through the human development indices (HDI) namely; health, education, and fighting poverty.

These critical areas of human development, when prioritized by any committed leadership will transform a nation and engender sustainable development for the greater good of all humanity.

In our journey to a New Nigeria, I have consistently maintained our firm resolve to build a nation where every Nigerian, especially the youths, will have an enabling environment to grow, contribute to our national development, and make positive impacts on the global community by proffering solutions to many global challenges.

I thank the organizers of the program for their initiative and the honour of inviting me, and the audience for the lively discussions. Together we will continue to build a better humanity. -PO

Nigerians missed a big opportunity to make Nigeria a first world country through Peter Obi. But it is never too late.

Lizzysamuel:
Obi also met UK Labour Party MP and Shadow Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, after their private meeting yesterday in the House of Commons. They had very useful discussions around insecurity, education and tackling poverty.

You even added David's photo in a bid to use gbajue for us. You can see Peter Obi is not wearing his usual dark cloth in that picture. That refugee is stuck in Ghana 🤣

Scarrr:
Bitter soul, face front.

Lizzysamuel:

StOla you're crying more these days 😂😂

Lizzysamuel:

Peter Obi was in UK interacting with productive minds. Thièfnubu travelled to Saudi Arabia and disappeared from public spaces.

A sick drug paddler vs a healthy vibrant mind, the difference is clear.

Meanwhile, Agbado baboons can take this and cure their collective madness.
