Such selflessness speaks to the need for our greater unity and being our brother’s keeper irrespective of tribe and religion and despite our diversity.”
Obi, a former Anambra State governor, stated that the various noble gestures of Onyema will serve as instructive lessons to Nigerians, and that acts of nation-building by patriotic citizens come in different strands.
“Those who can make meaningful contributions must be ready to do so selflessly. God bless you and God bless Nigeria,” Obi added.
