“Obi has always showed strong support, both financial and otherwise, not just to our college, but to education in general. He has been there for us since the inception of the Institution in 2017. That is the hallmark of true leadership. I urge other political leaders not just to wait for campaign periods, before showing true love to society,” he said.

Presenting a cheque of N1 million to the school, for infrastructural and educational development, Obi said he was impressed with the good work Bishop Ikeakor was doing in the College. He praised the Bishop “for developing a great citadel of learning out of what used to be a dilapidated environment”.

Umenze also prayed God to bless the proprietor of the College, Bishop Ikeakor, whom he said, had remained committed to infrastructural and moral development of the College.
