Celebrating My Eldest Brother at 75
Today, 30th August 2026, I celebrate my eldest brother, Dominic Ositadimma Obi, who turns 75. I celebrate him not merely because he is my elder brother or because of his age, but because he is an exemplary human being.
When I was Governor of Anambra State for eight years, he never came to my office or the Governor’s Lodge for a day seeking favours, as many might have expected. He is a planner and contractor who builds homes for people, yet not once did he ask me for a government contract.
Whenever we met, he would warmly embrace me and tell me that he was fine. He would then solemnly remind me to keep doing what I promised the people and never bring a bad name to the family and my community. He would tell me that whatever difficulties he was going through, many others were worse off, and that I should do my best for society.
I later came to understand that this was not peculiar to him alone. My family members had actually held a meeting and resolved that none of them would take advantage of my position as Governor. They decided that whatever good name I was building for the Obi family and Agulu must be protected. The same principle extended to my children.
Today, at 75, my beloved brother remains deeply concerned about Nigeria. Whenever we speak, he is full of prayers and good wishes. He constantly reminds me that if I have the opportunity to serve Nigeria, I should do so with honesty, integrity, and the interest of the people at heart.
Brother Dom, I thank God for the gift of your life and for the example you have set for our family. Your integrity, humility, contentment, and sense of responsibility are qualities worthy of celebration.
May God Almighty, who has graciously been with you all these years, grant you good health, His abundant grace, and blessings.
Happy 75th birthday, my dearest brother. -PO

Look at this image. Look at the pain and distress a fellow Nigerian is going through while fighting kidney failure!
Dialysis in Nigeria today costs anywhere between ₦50,000 to ₦100,000 per session—meaning patients need up to ₦600,000 every single month just to stay alive! In a country where millions are struggling to survive, how can ordinary families afford this?
I AM CALLING OUT PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU, SENATE PRESIDENT GODSWILL AKPABIO, AND THE LEADERSHIP OF THIS NATION:
Stop the Messy Politics and Budget for Human Lives! If our government can budget billions for luxury cars, political allowances, and endless renovations, why is there no dedicated national fund for FREE or fully subsidized treatment for terminal kidney disease and organ transplants?
Crowdfunding is NOT Healthcare Governance! It is an absolute disgrace that sick citizens must beg on social media, set up GoFundMe pages, and depend on public charity just to pay for basic healthcare that the state should provide!
We need functional, subsidized dialysis centers in every federal medical center and state hospital across Nigeria—not empty promises while citizens die silently!
THIS COULD HAPPEN TO ANYONE!
Tomorrow it could be you, your sibling, or your child. Disease does not care about political parties, tribes, or social status.
We must force this government to use our taxpayers' money correctly! Serve the masses, not your pockets!
EVERY NIGERIAN READING THIS Tag @officialABAT we demand that healthcare funding becomes a national priority!

I feel deeply sorry for my country people💔
What kind of Leadership reduces human beings to this level of slavery?
This is the Renewed Poverty and hopelessness that APC data boys and girls are paid to defend daily?
A People so Blessed yet so Poor?
2027 = Nigerians End this CURSE you call a government ❗️
