    Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has extended his congratulations to Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), on her 70th birthday on June 13.

    In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Festus Ahon, Governor Oborevwori lauded Okonjo-Iweala, a notable Deltan from Ogwashi-Uku and the first African woman to head the global trade organization.

    He commended her as a beacon of professionalism and integrity and an exemplary role model for women.

    He also lauded the WTO Director-General for her sublime and remarkable achievements in support of Nigeria and the international financial sector.

    Oborevwori remarked that Okonjo-Iweala made laudable contributions to the development of Nigeria’s economy, as a two-time Finance Minister.

    He extolled Okonjo-Iweala for her intellect and skill as a leading economist and specialist in international development, whose faultless work over the years had won her praise from all over the world.

    “As a state, we take great pride in your impressive achievements, which have earned you numerous accolades and recognition over the years.

    “Your innovative contributions as Finance Minister under Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan are particularly noteworthy.

    “On behalf of my family, the Delta State government, and our people, I extend warm congratulations to you, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on your 70th birth anniversary.

    “I join your family, colleagues, and well-wishers in expressing gratitude to God for your remarkable life, filled with outstanding accomplishments and fulfillment.

    “As you celebrate three scores and ten, I pray that God grants you continued good health, happiness, and many more years of impactful contributions to the global economy.”
