Valedictory Session for Physiology Graduates: Peter Obi's Message
I represented Mr. Peter Obi at the Valedictory Session for Physiology graduates at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, where he was invited as a keynote speaker. Due to his absence, I delivered his message to the new graduates.
Mr. Obi emphasized that as young graduates, you are fortunate to have been educated at one of Nigeria's finest institutions. He encouraged you to be the drivers of your life's journey, to remain focused, and to paddle your own canoe. He also urged you to cultivate your minds with a well-rounded education, exploring various fields beyond physiology, such as philosophy, poetry, history, and prose.
He advised you to seek out credible role models who embody virtues like hard work, honesty, and integrity. Mr. Obi reminded you that your alma mater will always be proud of your accomplishments and urged you to make a positive impact on society. He encouraged you to contribute to changing the system by upholding high moral standards and not being part of election rigging in the future.
In his message, Mr. Obi emphasized the importance of loving Nigeria despite its challenges and encouraged you to explore opportunities abroad, following the example of Indians who strive to improve themselves through education and productive ventures. He also reminded you to remain close to God and always remember your teachers and alma mater.
In essence, Mr. Peter Obi's message is one of hope, inspiration, and guidance, urging you to be your drivers, seek credible role models, and cultivate your minds with a well-rounded education.
