Peter Obi Gave N75K Cheque To The Lady She Promised An Oven For Her Business

Popular politician and presidential candidate, Peter Obi has redeemed a pledge he made to a young lady who couldn’t afford to buy an oven for her baking business.

It would be recalled that during a press conference following the declaration of his political opponent, Bola Ahmed Tinubu as president-elect, Peter Obi had narrated his encounter with the young entrepreneur.

He revealed that the entrepreneur, Ms. Gimba Sophia Emmanuel, who graduated in 2018 had told him that she had been unable to purchase an oven for her business.

While recounting his chat with the lady, he had been moved to tears as he wondered how badly the state of Nigeria has become that a graduate couldn’t afford to get herself an oven for her business.

Days following this, the presidential candidate, who has taken the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the ruling party APC to court, has offered the Nigerian lady financial assistance.

He shared a photo of him and the young lady standing with a check of an undisclosed amount held out for the camera.
