PHOTOS: Peter Obi Meets, Partners With Pope Francis To Develop Nigeria’s Education And Sports
Former governor of Anambra state and vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general election, Peter Obi, has met with Pope Francis.
Obi said his meeting with Pope was based on development of Nigeria’s education and sports sectors.
The former governor on his twitter page on Thursday, December 19, said he was excited working with the Pontifical Foundation Scholas Occurentes, a Pope Francis’ initiative, to develop Nigeria’s crucial sectors.
ORIENTAL TIMES understands that the initiative is an intelligent response to the call of the era to educate all. It also has branches in many places around the world.
Nigeria continues to underdevelop because of the scant attention to education. I am excited to be working with the Pontifical Foundation Scholas Occurrentes, @InfoScholas, an initiative of @Pontifex, to bring development to our #education and #sports in Nigeria. -PO pic.twitter.com/oiOpFLv5Y8
