You gave hope to millions of Nigerians - Reno hails Peter Obi as he celebrate 62nd birthday

Reno Omokri, a senior special assistant to former President Goodluck Jonathan says Peter Obi of the Labour Party has left an indelible mark on Nigeria's political space.

Omokri hailed Obi as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party marking his 62nd birthday.

He said in a statement that the former Anambra governor "gave hope" to millions of Nigerians in the lead-up to the February 18 presidential elections.

He described Obi as a patriot who is passionate about Nigeria.

"Here's wishing Mr Peter Obi a happy 62nd birthday. In your time on Earth, you have indelibly etched your footprints in the sands of time for good. And perhaps your most worthy achievement is giving hope to millions of Nigerians, especially those who self-identify as Obidients," Reno Omokri said.

"You deepened the democratic space in Nigeria and added value to our national life. And today, I salute you, your patriotism, and your passion. Happy birthday," he added.
