The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter
Obi, has responded to the question that he did not build a single new school
when he was Governor of Anambra State.
A popular social media personality, Reno Omokri, had last
week hit out at Obi, challenging the the former Anambra State Governor and his
followers to show a single school he started and finished in his eight years as
governor.
Reno promised to reward handsomely, anyone that could show a
school built by Obi.
And responding to this during a press conference in Abuja on
Wednesday, Obi said those who said that failed to avail themselves of his
manifesto.
He said that when he came to Anambra State, education was in
shambles, schools were closed and the state was number 26 in the country but by
the time he left, Anambra was number one in the state.
“I improved the quality, physical and mental well-being of
the people, schools, had the basic things they needed and the people shone like
stars and that was my manifesto.
“Building new schools when the old ones are moribund is just
like building coastal lines when internal roads are impassable.”
