In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Olisa Ifeajika, on Thursday in Asaba, the governor commended the former president for his unique statesmanship and graceful disposition to issues.

He said that Jonathan’s bourgeoning role in enthrenching democracy across Africa through his observer-mission activities was impactful and laudable.

According to the governor, Jonathan’s exemplary contributions aided the institutionalization of democracy and improvement of elections in Nigeria and Africa through his personal sacrifice and leadership by example.

“On behalf of the government and people of Delta, I congratulate our leader and statesman, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, as he celebrates his 63rd birth anniversary.

“Your Excellency, it gives me pleasure to celebrate you for your continuous role in deepening democracy in our dear country and Africa.

“As our dear former President clocks 63 years today, it is my prayer and that of millions of Nigerians, that God will continue to strengthen him in his avowed commitment to ensuring greater peace, good governance and enduring democracy in Africa,” he said.
