Reno Omokri, Nigeria’s future ambassador to Mexico, wished Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential contender Peter Obi a happy birthday.
Omokri praised Obi, saying that the politician has worked to increase citizens’ engagement in Nigeria’s political process.
On Sunday, July 19, 2026, Obi will turn 65 years old, and Omokri took to social media to wish him a good birthday. I pray that God grants you a long and healthy life.
Joining you in this joyous occasion, my loved ones and I give thanks to God for all the good things He has done for you. When you celebrate, we celebrate with you, and we appreciate all you’ve done to make democracy more participatory.
Iron sharpens iron, as the Bible says, and that is exactly what you are. You have helped your followers become more aware and involved in Nigeria’s democratic life by becoming active in the political process. I must say, I am quite impressed by that.
Since this day only arrives once a year, it’s only fitting that you want for the remainder of your days to be the finest of your days and that the Creator keeps bestowing wisdom upon you as you age.
Wishing you a very happy birthday, sir! May this day be filled with joy and happiness, so that you may look back and think it was a great day! My sincerest regards.
