…Says he redirects birthday gifts to projects that impact lives
The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, has explained that his decision to invest in schools and hospitals is driven by his belief that such institutions are critical to improving lives and building a better future for the country.
Obi stated this in a statement on Sunday marking his 65th birthday, where he reflected on his journey, public service and commitment to humanity.
The former Anambra State governor said birthdays should not only be occasions for personal celebration but moments for gratitude, sober reflection and renewed dedication to serving God and humanity.
“At sixty-five, birthdays should naturally become moments of deep reflection — moments to look back with gratitude to Almighty God for His abundant graces, examine the journey so far, and ask how the remaining years can be devoted more meaningfully to the service of God and humanity,” he said.
