Hello & Welcome
Blue means open edge, i.e. the edge isn't connected to a second polygon.
This doesn't happen ususally when importing obj files. No idea what's wrong.
You could try an alternative obj importer "file->import->fbx import" (switch to obj file format), or you could fix this by applying a "modify->poly. mesh->filter points" operator on the mesh.
