RSG Hails Dame Jonathan, Dokpesi’s Contributions To Nation’s Unity

The Rivers State Government has felicitated with the wife of former President, Dame Patience Jonathan and the Chairman Emeritus of Daar Communications Plc, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi on their birthday celebrations.
A statement signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Information and Communications, Pastor Paulinus Nsirim, last Saturday, quoted the Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, as felicitating with Dr Raymond Dokpesi on his 68th birthday.
Wike described the media mogul as a trailblazer who pioneered private broadcasting in Nigeria, and has played a key role in the sustenance of democracy, using his broadcast medium as a platform.
The Rivers State governor prayed God to grant High Chief Raymond Dokpesi several years of sound health to continue to contribute to nation building and the promotion of the unity and progress of the country.
Also, the Deputy Governor of Rivers State, Dr. Ipalibo Harry Banigo, felicitated with Dame Patience Jonathan, as she celebrated her birthday, last Friday.
In a statement in Government House, Port Harcourt, Banigo said that Dame Patience Jonathan’s contribution to the socio-economic and political emancipation of Nigerian women was highly commendable.
According to her, Mama Peace as she is fondly called, has continued to support the Wike-led administration in the state, noting that she was a source of inspiration to the younger generation.
Banigo while wishing her many happy returns, prayed the Almighty God to continue to bless and keep her in good health.
