Yesterday, at exactly 5:45 a.m., His Excellency Mr. @PeterObi woke me with a simple reminder: “Maazi, it’s time for my routine walk.”
We spent over an hour and thirty minutes walking together in the city of Berlin, Germany while he had meeting schedule later in the day.
What struck me was not just the walk itself, but the discipline and resilience behind it.
His Excellency had only just travelled from the United States to the United Kingdom, where I met him at the airport. From there, we continued on to Germany yesterday. Despite the demanding transatlantic journey, a packed travel schedule, and a very late night, he was awake before me this morning, committed to his daily routine without excuses.
After completing the walk, he prepared for another full day, including a meeting with the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) on matters of international and foreign policy.
Leadership is often revealed in the quiet habits that people never see: discipline, consistency, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to purpose. These are the qualities I witnessed firsthand today.
For me, this is the work ethic of a man who genuinely believes Nigeria can be transformed and who is prepared to make the personal sacrifices required to achieve that vision. It is this steadfast dedication that continues to inspire hope that a new Nigeria is not merely an aspiration, but a future within our lifetime.
