Jonathan Congratulates Anenih At 79
President Goodluck Jonathan has commended former Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Tony Anenih’s commitment to the common good, as well as the sustained growth and development of the nation.
The commendation was contained in a letter to Anenih on the occasion of his 79th birthday.
The PDP chieftain and former Minister of Works and Housing (1999 to 2002) was born on August 4, 1933.
In the one-page letter, dated July 30th, 2012, the President said: “On behalf of my family, the government and people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I extend warm felicitations to you as you mark your 79th birthday anniversary which comes up on Saturday, the 4th of August, 2012.
“Given your commitment to the common good, as well as your uncommon wisdom and unwavering dedication to the sustained growth and development of our dear nation, it is my prayer that Almighty God continues to imbue you with robust health and enduring strength in the many years of fulfillment ahead of you.”
“I join your family, friends, political children and numerous well-wishers to thank God for the life of outstanding accomplishment and dedicated service with which He has blessed you. May His favour continue to abide in your life. I wish you, Dear Leader, a very Happy Birthday!”
