Immediate past Governor of Anambra
State, Mr. Peter Obi, has hailed former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, and
General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch
Adeboye, for their invaluable contributions to humanity and to evangelism.
Mr. Obi in a statement issued on
Sunday by his Media Office congratulated Chief Obasanjo on the occasion of his
80th birthday, describing him as a worthy Nigerian and African, as well as an
eminent global citizen. He specifically saluted the one-time Head of State for
the launch, on Saturday, of the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library.
“This is a significant contribution
to the body of knowledge which would go a long way towards deepening the
intellectual capacity of Africa and Africans,” Obi said. “May God continue to
bless and grant Chief Obasanjo good health for his continued contributions to
the building of a better Nigeria and Africa,” the former Anambra governor
added.
Obi also felicitated with Pastor
Adeboye on the occasion of his 75th birthday. He described him as “a man who
has touched millions of lives through his evangelism and has continued to
advise people to live a godly and caring life.” Obi prayed that “God should
continue to bless Pastor Adeboye as he continues to work in his vineyard and
for humanity.”
