Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi recently appeared on the Honest Bunch Podcast with host Nedu Wazobia, where he shared insights into his ambitious early years and entrepreneurial spirit.

Obi spoke about his productivity mindset and the business ventures he embarked on while attending the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN).

In the podcast, Obi discussed how he’s driven by a desire to be productive in everything he does.

He recounted his days as a student at UNN, revealing that he was actively involved in multiple business projects.

One of his notable achievements during this time was establishing branches of Savannah Bank in Omuo and Ubolafor, a feat that underscored his drive and business acumen from a young age.

According to Obi, he couldn’t imagine a life without constantly being engaged in productive work.

Obi’s entrepreneurial journey also extended to his personal lifestyle, as he explained that he lived in his own private house during his time at the university.

He said that his financial independence allowed him to purchase his first car in his freshman year. By his second year, he had upgraded to a Peugeot 505, and in his third year, he acquired a BMW 520—a notable luxury for a university student.

These early accomplishments, he implied, were the result of his hard work and disciplined approach to business.

Beyond his bank ventures and personal assets, Obi made a name for himself on campus by opening a large supermarket within the university grounds. He noted that his supermarket became a familiar establishment, making him a well-known figure among his peers and the university community at large.

Obi said, “I can’t live without being productive. As a student at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, I built the Savanna Bank Branch in Omuo and Ubolafor.

“I lived in my house as a student; I bought my first car in my first year in school; in my second year I bought 505, in my third year I had a BMW 520; everybody knows me.

“If you pass Nsukka when I was in Nsukka, you will know me; I owned a supermarket inside the campus.”
