Following him was Senator Murray-Bruce who said:

@renoomokri, I am excited at the new and beautiful addition to your family. Your child is surely blessed to have you as a father. My best wishes to you and your family.

Following him was President Jonathan who said:

Congratulations to @renoomokri and his wife, on the birth of their daughter very early this morning. I am grateful that the couple have chosen to name their daughter Ebele, after me. I thank God for the safe delivery and that mother and child are healthy and thriving.
