Oborevwori rejoices with Moses Odibo at 70

Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori has congratulated renowned lawyer and politician, Chief Moses Odibo, on his 70th birth anniversary on August 16.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, on Wednesday in Asaba, the Governor noted that Odibo, a former civil commissioner and dedicated chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was a consummate politician and accomplished leader, who had contributed immensely to the growth and unity of the party and development of Delta.

He commended the talented political tactician fondly called "Elegbete’’ in political circle for his keen efforts at bridge-building and described him as "a core politician and patriotic son of Udu and Urhoboland," whose passion for uplifting his people is unblemished.

The Governor recalled Odibo’s contributions to the development of the State through his past services as Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftancy Affairs.

He said: “As a political colossus with impeccable character, you have remained ingenious and a great mentor to many members of our party and we appreciate you for your profound and infectious loyalty to the PDP.

“On behalf of the Government and people of Delta, I heartily rejoice with a great leader, a reputable and reliable political ally, Chief Moses Odibo, as he celebrates his 70th birth anniversary.

“As you attain the proverbial three-score years and 10, I am pleased to join your family, political associates and other well-wishers in thanking God for blessing you with strength and wisdom to serve the people of Delta and Nigeria.

“It is our prayer that God will continue to protect you and grant you good health to render more services to Him and our people.”
