Okowa urged the former Governor to continue to avail the state of his experience as the government worked towards a Stronger Delta for the people. “We pray that God Almighty would continue to bless him with good health and long life.
He is an elder statesman and leader of inestimable value whose contributions to the growth and development of the state remained memorable.”
“On behalf of the government and people of Delta, it is with profound joy and gratitude to God that I express very warm felicitations to you on your 66th birth anniversary.”
