President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, Director of Adoration Ministry, on the 21st anniversary of his ordination to priesthood in the Catholic Church, slated for Friday.

This is contained in a statement issued by Mr Femi Adesina, the president's Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, and made available to newsmen on Thursday in Abuja.

The statement said Buhari felicitated with the Mbaka's family, congregation and well-wishers 'as they celebrate this special occasion with him in his continued devotion to the well being of others as a father, wise counselor, teacher and guardian.''

He commended Mbaka's steadfast devotion to his vocation and ministry amply demonstrated in his love and service for his people, nation and God.

He prayed that God Almighty, who had given the cleric the strength to devote his entire life to service in the Vineyard , would continually bless and prosper his ministry. (NAN)
