Erhiatake Ibori, the Political Heiress, Stands Tall in Her Father's Shoes
Daughter's Support Helped Thwart Potential Attacks on Father's Legacy - Ibori Acknowledges Daughter's Loyalty in Mimicking His Achievements
James Ibori, the ex-Delta State governor, can't help but feel a sense of pride as he gazes upon his daughter, Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu. On her 45th birthday, he applauds her courageous stance in stepping into his political footsteps.
In a heartfelt message he penned on her big day, Ibori acknowledges that Erhiatake's political journey has been instrumental in upholding his legacy. "Matey, by joining me in the political arena, you've foiled any attempts to undermine my reputation," he stated.
Erhiatake, a determined force in her own right, currently represents the Ethiope East/Ethiope West Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.
Her fearlessness and unwavering commitment to public service have earned her high praise from her father, who notes that her presence in government has been a critical element in safeguarding his legacy.
Their bond runs deep, with Ibori expressing profound gratitude to God for her life. He celebrates her growth into a steadfast and principled leader, who stands firm against compromises and champions values that supersede personal gains.
Erhiatake's political prowess is evident, as she navigates the intricate party dynamics between the PDP and APC, a tried and true legacy of the influential Ibori family.
Ibori, a founding father of the PDP in Delta State and a close associate of President Bola Tinubu, has been keeping a low profile since his return to Nigeria in 2016 following a jail term in the UK for money laundering allegations.
