Just In: Peter Obi to speak at Enugu NAPPS maiden education summit; as Onyishi’s ‘Maduka University College’ becomes Platinum Sponsor
By Chetanne Chinelo, Enugu
Following the planned 2-day maiden education summit of the Enugu State chapter of the National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools (NAPPS), a foremost body of proprietors of private schools in Nigeria, in collaboration with the Enugu State Ministry of Education, the Association’s Local Organizing Committee (LOC) has announced the Keynote Speaker of the summit to be Mr. Peter Obi.
Interacting with newsmen in Enugu, the Chairman of the Association, Ernest Ikeugwu, said the choice of the former Governor of Anambra State & the 2019 PDP Vice Presidential candidate, as the Keynote Speaker, was due to his sterling performance as Governor of Anambra, especially in the Education sector of his state, while he held sway as Governor.
“Peter Obi is a man anyone who comes in contact with, is impressed about. His attitude to governance is quite encouraging and seeing what he did in the Education industry of Anambra State, we decided that it would be great to hear from the horse’s mouth, to see how that could help further strengthen the education sector of both private and public schools in Enugu State. That aside, his intellectual reserve and understanding of the Nigerian environment is not in doubt, being a man of many parts”, Ikeugwu said.
