Yesterday, I honored an invitation to deliver a keynote/Interactive address at Wharton School, Pennsylvania USA, the African Business Forum. This forum, with over three decades of engagement with Africa, provides for both introspective and retrospective discussions on the continent’s future. As the oldest business school in America, Wharton has played a pivotal role in fostering these dialogues. This year, I had the privilege of participating and engaging with over 500 students from across Africa, especially Nigeria, to discuss the future of the continent and the contributions young Africans can make towards building a better, more prosperous Africa. I continue to emphasize to young Africans that our continent is brimming with potentials. Unfortunately, this potential has often been unrealized due to cumulative leadership failures. However, today's generation has both the opportunity and the responsibility to rewrite that narrative and drive the transformation Africa so urgently needs. During the session, I shared my journey from the world of trading and corporate life into public service, which have been with obstacles, but with persistence, and perseverance I have been able to overcome most. I emphasized that, having studied at some of the world's top institutions, I firmly believe our fulfillment comes when we use our knowledge to build a better society for all and engage directly or indirectly with our communities. It is only through this grassroots commitment that true progress can be achieved. I remain convinced that a new Nigeria and indeed a new Africa is possible. -PO

Did you know that he didn't build a single school throughout his tenure of 8years in Anambra? Please, don't let them gaslight you with lies, this man is a real politician packaged by some people to deceive the teeming youths. In my language, we say "whoever will cut a cloth for you, we first check the one on their body" Check his antecedents, he has a whole lot of poor statistics as a former political leader in Anambra
