Former Governor of Anambra State and Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has revealed his intention to retire to Onitsha as a secondary school teacher to inspire young students.

Obi disclosed this on Friday while teaching final-year students at Dennis Memorial Grammar School, Onitsha, in commemoration of the International Day of Education.

Addressing the students during the interactive session, Obi emphasized the transformative power of education and his desire to shape the future of Nigeria by nurturing young minds.

He said, “I was just passing by when I decided to mark the International Day of Education here with you. I told myself there was need for me to come here and speak to students. I also know that tomorrow will mark the 100 years of existence of this school, so I came to be with you.

“Education is the most important thing in your life. It is the most important capital, equipment that you need to be successful. That you are here is a sign that you’re already a success.

“I’m here to encourage you, you are acquiring the best and some of you are potential governors and presidents and you must take your education seriously.

“In this school in 1970, I was at the gate here to salute General Gowon who visited, and joined other children to sing for him, but through education I was able to grow to the point where I sat with him on the same table and made decisions.

“I hope to retire to Onitsha someday, and take up a teaching job to inspire children.”
