President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated oil and gas, engineering and local content promoter, Chief Leemon Ikpea, as he turns 66 today.
According to a statement by Special Adviser to the President (Media and Publicity), Femi Adesina, Buhari “rejoices with the native of Ewatto, Esan South East local government of Edo State, his family, friends and associates on the new age, joining them to glorify God for the gift of life, health, and business successes.”
The statement reads: “President Buhari is delighted that Lee Engineering and Construction Company, of which Chief Ikpea is Chairman/Chief Executive Officer, is one of the homegrown investors in the oil and gas industry, with the company, recently, marking 31 years of existence and landmark records.”
“The President prays that the Adolor of Ewatto Kingdom, and Odonlagbon of Warri, will continue to touch lives through acts of philanthropy, for which he is noted.”
