Delta State Governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, has sent congratulatory message to his main rival in the 2015 governorship election in the state, Olorogun O’tega Emerhor (OON), as he turns 60 years on Saturday November 25, 2017.

Okowa in a congratulatory message signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Charles Aniagwu, lauded the exemplary contributions of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) leader in Delta State, Olorogun Emerhor to the banking and insurance industries in Nigeria.

He said that his foray into politics has enriched opposition politics and deepened democracy in Delta State through his personal sacrifice and leadership by example.

Governor Okowa commended the APC chieftain for the series of empowerment programmes lined up to mark the diamond jubilee of his birth.

“It is with profound joy that I write on behalf of my family, the government and people of Delta State, to express very warm felicitations to you on your 60th birthday.

“It is gratifying to note that our administration will continue to welcome constructive criticisms from accomplished, highly respected, statesmen and committed patriots like you as we vigorously pursue our SMART Agenda for Deltans.

“As you deservedly mark this landmark anniversary, it is my prayer that Almighty God will continue to grant you good health, even as He guides, guards and prospers you in the many more years of fulfilling service ahead of you,” the Governor wrote.
