Former President Obasanjo hails Rochas Okorocha over humanitarian projects

Former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has rained praises on Former Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha over his educational intervention and other humanitarian projects.

Speaking at the graduation ceremony of students of Rochas Foundation in Owerri, the Imo state capital, he said, Rochas Okorocha is a thinking man. And when he explained to me his ideas about education, what he has done, I was marvelled. I doff my hat for you, Okorocha.

“Let me say this; the beginning of the development for any country is education. And the extent that we take education seriously is the extent that we take development seriously.

“Rochas is not just dealing with education; he is dealing with education for the underprivileged in general, which means that if the poor and the underprivileged will rise above their disadvantaged position, it is only through education.

“And with what I have seen today, I have no regret at all to accept his offer for me to be part of this wonderful programme and wonderful development agenda to our country and for our continent.”
