Obi Melts As He Honours 11-Year-Old Pupil’s Graduation Ceremony
Tolu, an 11-year-old primary school boy of Corona School in Lagos, has been astonished after the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, honoured his invitation to be a special Guest of Honour to his primary six school graduation ceremony.
Obi made event known via his official X handle. He noted that he was touched by the courage of the young lad, which made him think of such a brave action.
Obi wrote, “Today, I was immensely touched by the action of an 11-year-old head boy from Corona School in Gbagada, Lagos. The boy named Tolu on his own took the initiative to invite me as Special Guest of Honour to his primary six school graduation ceremony.”
Obi highlighted a question asked by the boy that melted his heart.
” Then, with a curious mind, he asked the question that melted my heart: “What can I do to be a good person like you?” I encouraged him to always embrace honesty, listen to his parents, teachers, and elders; and always do the right thing.
“I urged him to study hard and resist the temptation to follow the crowd when it is wrong.
Obi further remarked, “I was gladdened by his initiative at such a tender age and was even more astonished and elated interacting with the young lad.”
“When I asked him how he knew me, he said that he had followed my journey during the elections and was inspired by the good things people said about me.”
