Anti-Corruption Day: Peter Obi Decries Nigeria's High Corruption Rate

The 2023 Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has advised Nigerian students to leave the country in search of greener pastures after graduating.

Obi stated that he would never tell anyone to stay in a place that is too difficult for them.

He said that the students could return to the country after the economic situation is better.

Obi gave this advice while donating to two higher institutions in Anambra State.

While addressing students of the College of Nursing Sciences in Adazi-Nnukwu, Obi said he intends to keep supporting institutions that nurture skill, professionalism, and character.

He said, “I was here in May this year to support you, and as I had told you, the support was to be done last year, but I couldn’t come because of electioneering, so I came in May.

“This is something I do every year, and today I’m here to give you my donation for this year. Those of us in public life should be able to earn public trust, and that is why I am here to do as I said.

“I have always told the Nursing Council not to restrict you people from travelling abroad after graduation. If it is not going to work for you here, go to where it will work for you.

“We will not advise anyone to stay where it is difficult for them. If you want to seek greener pastures outside, please go. I’m sure that when we build a greater Nigeria, you will come back.”
