Obi emphasized that the level of development of any nation is dependent on how it values education, noting that the difference between developed and developing countries is education.

He said: “As a country we have Universal Basic Education (UBE); it means from primary school, basic education is free and I have always argued it should include primary and secondary. The most important tool of measuring of development is education. The more educated you are the more developed you are.

“The only difference between developed and developing is education. For me when you save from wastages, the next investment should be in education, especially.

“We need to invest aggressively in education, in health and pull people out of poverty. To me, secondary and primary would have been free.

“I would have funded it aggressively. It doesn’t matter whether the schools are owned by private individuals or government. We will fund them aggressively because it is critical and important.“
