The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has penned an emotional letter to Dr. Mike Adenuga, as he marks his birthday anniversary.

Obi said Adenuga contributed to the growth and development of the nation’s economy through his productive enterprises.

The former Anambra State governor stated this in a post via his verified Twitter handle on Wednesday.

Obi said the oil tycoon is a “symbol of hard work for the younger generation to look up to.”

He said, “My Very Dear Elder Brother and Friend, Dr. Mike Adenuga, my kind thoughts and sincere prayers are with you on your recent birthday. You have hugely contributed to the growth and development of our economy through your various productive enterprises that led to job creation, provision of critical products and services and others.

“Your desire for hard work, a knack for excellence and a push for success reflect on the successful businesses you have set grown in the nation. You remain a symbol of hard work for the younger generation to look up to.

“I wish you well, now and always. Happy 70th birthday Sir.”
