Onyebuchi Ezigbo in Abuja
The Onitsha Archdiocesan Health Coordinator, in Anambra State, Rev. Fr. Basil Ekwunife, and the Chairman of Onitsha Archdiocesan Hospital Board, Rev Fr. Patrick Omuta, have both described the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2019 elections, Mr. Peter Obi, as the man who has the knowledge, character, passion, drive and integrity to lift Nigeria from present decadence.
The clerics made the comment on Obi during the end of the year party organised by Holy Rosary Specialist Hospital and Maternity, Waterside Onitsha.
A statement issued by his Special Assistant on Media, Valentine Obienu, said the two clergymen applauded Obi for his philanthropic gestures across the country, most of which they said do not often get the media attention.
