Peter Obi empowers 25 youths with N7.5m

The Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has admonished youths to imbibe the spirit of hard work, discipline, and integrity as a sure path to success.

Obi, who is also a former governor of Anambra State, spoke recently during an inspiring interactive session with youths in Onitsha, Anambra State, at the invitation of the Faithspiration Initiative. His empowering message centred on the importance of hard work, discipline, and integrity.

Obi reminded the youths that success in life is not determined by one’s background but by an unwavering commitment to doing the right things and working tirelessly towards achieving goals.

He shared his personal journey, explaining that although he was born and raised in Onitsha, success did not come easily.

He underscored that, like many of them, he too faced challenges but was able to overcome them through hard work and discipline.

“There is no shortcut to success,” Obi stated.

“It is not where you come from, but how determined you are to do the right things and work hard that truly counts.”

To further support the youths, Obi provided N300,000 each to 25 individuals to help them advance their productive ventures.

He also pledged to continue empowering two more youths every month, starting in January.

In closing, Obi reiterated his belief in the potential of Nigerian youth to drive change.

“A New Nigeria remains POssible,” he affirmed.
