Social media users have reacted in various ways to Peter Gregory Obi's announcement that he will be launching the Water and Education Challenge. Peter Obi was a former governor of Anambra state and a presidential candidate for the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 Elections.
On Wednesday, the news was announced on Dr. Moses Paul's official X handle.
Mr. Peter Obi addressed the water shortage and the education crisis in Nigeria at a news conference today, according to Moses Paul's post on his Facebook.
Mr. Obi brought attention to the critical issue of water accessibility in Nigeria by drawing on his recent findings made while touring the country. As a solution, he has started a campaign to drill boreholes in different towns.
And while Peter Obi did recognise the problem of children not in school, he stressed the need to provide education to these underserved communities. He advocated for the creation of specialised schools that would meet their demands by staffing them with competent educators and offering a wide range of subjects.
Nevertheless, several responses have been received from individuals on social media.
