Peter Obi recently joined the 100th-anniversary celebration of Bigard Memorial Seminary in Enugu, a significant milestone for one of Africa’s foremost Catholic seminaries. During the event, Obi participated in an interactive session with seminarians, sharing insights on leadership, faith, and the importance of integrating religious values into public service. He emphasized the need for Nigeria to embrace productivity over consumption, highlighting the country’s untapped agricultural potential and the role of faith-based institutions in shaping moral and ethical leadership.
The celebration featured a series of activities, including a Thanksgiving Mass officiated by the Apostolic Nuncio to Nigeria, tree-planting initiatives symbolizing environmental stewardship, and awards recognizing distinguished alumni.
