He expressed joy for being part of the celebration to mark the 50th birthday celebration of an anointed Man of God, saying that Rev Odoko, who is popularly called Pastor Tee has impacted positively to human development  in all ramifications.
“ I am very excited for so  many reasons, most especially for being part of the programme of activities to mark the Reverend’s birthday through basketball. I commend the chairman of the organising committee of the novelty game,  Belema Alamina for a successful game,”Onyanabo said.
He further thank the man of God for what he is  doing to mankind in the Society and pray  God to give him more years to live.
Earlier, Rev Odoko thanked the DA-F basketball academy for the show of love on his birthday, especially his Chief of Staff, who is the chairman of the committee.
“My Chief of Staff,  Belema Alamina, former Rivers Hooper captain, felt this is  one way to show his appreciation and love for me.
“We were so engaged but I say if a man should go through all this to honour me, the least l should do is to come and say thank you,” Rev Odoko said.
Highlights of the event include cutting of birthday cake and presentation of a basketball to the Man of God, by DA-F.
