Yobo Turns Drops of Dew into Rain

By Ogeco Ogeco

President of Ogoni Central Indigenous Authority, OCIA, Dr. Goodluck Diigbo has praised Mr. Joseph Phillip Yobo at the end of what he described as his inspiring competitive soccer career.

He made the remarks following a Testimonial Match in honor of Mr Yobo at the Adokiye Amiesimaka stadium in Port Harcourt on Friday, May 27, 2016.

He said Mr. Yobo turned drops of dew into rain, when he rose from obscurity, through his soccer feats into limelight.

Nothing could give greater pride to his fellow Ogoni people than that he lived his dream as a citizen of the world, and never forgot where his journey began.

If fortune holds out some hope for those coming after him, particularly the young Ogoni dreamers; is only because he shown that success rewards perseverance.

Diigbo congratulated and wished Mr. Yobo well in his future endeavors.
