Obi who acknowledged that the country is presently undergoing hard times, said that rather than be discouraged, the youth should see that as a challenge for them to remain focus and make the best out of any situation they found themselves. For those undergoing training, he encouraged to take the training seriously and see it as a possible avenue to future greatness.
Obi urged the youth to form what he called "healthy habit of
self-examination, hardwork and understanding of those things that make
for greatness."
Commenting on the problems facing governance in Nigeria, Obi called for the reduction in the cost of governance at all levels. "Those in authority run into trouble by spending money on frivolities that do not add to the progress of our society", Obi said.
The proprietor of the Centre and the former Primate of the Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion, His Grace, Most Rev. Dr. Peter Akinola said the centre decided to invite Obi because over the years he had proved himself as an exemplary leader who has the fear of God.
Other dignitaries that graced the occasion include General Theophilus Danjuma, Chief Chris Oshonkoye,among others.
