Thousands of indigenes from oil host communities across the six states of the Niger Delta region have showered praise on the Vice Chairman of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited, Engr Mathew Tonlagha, for his significant contributions to the development of the area.
The youths and elders of the host communities, under the auspices of the Host Communities of Oil, Gas and Pipeline Impacted States Youth Council of Nigeria (HOSTCON), have described Engr Mathew Tonlagha as an extraordinary philanthropist and patriot who has utilised his wealth to enhance the lives of Niger Deltans and Nigerians at large.
The HOSTCON Youth Council of Nigeria, led by its National President, Comrade Emmanuel Fiawei Pathfinder, noted that Engr Mathew Tonlagha, who also serves as the Managing Director of Maton Engineering Nigeria Limited and Executive Director of FENOG Nigeria Limited, has demonstrated his capacity as a true leader, a beacon of hope, a philanthropic and humanitarian icon, and a pillar of the host communities producing oil and gas.
According to him, “He is a peacemaker, a bridge builder, and a unifier who has tirelessly dedicated his life to advocating for the betterment of ordinary Niger Deltans. We are immensely pleased to celebrate a true leader, a beacon of hope, and a philanthropic and humanitarian icon—a peacemaker and a bridge builder who has devoted his life to fighting for the betterment of ordinary Niger Deltans and Nigerians.”
“He has contributed to transforming the unfortunate past of Nigerians, as the narratives of many lives have dramatically changed, enabling them to become better individuals in society, regardless of their backgrounds.”
“He is one of the finest sons of the Ijaw Nation, an exceptional philanthropist within the Niger Delta region, a generous, patriotic, and true Nigerian leader, a man after God’s heart, who cares deeply about humanity and has touched the lives of many Niger Deltans and Nigerians.”
“Today indeed is a day of reflection and celebration, and we recognise that God brought you into this world to add value to the lives of Nigerians and beyond the borders of our country.”
“He is also a trailblazer who has instilled life and hope in the downtrodden within the oil and gas-producing communities in the Niger Delta and Nigeria as a whole. Your foundation has empowered countless individuals in the Niger Delta and positively impacted many lives in the creeks of Nigeria, many of whom are now leaders in their own right because of your unparalleled philanthropy.”
“We have encountered numerous personalities, but your kind is rare to find. You are overwhelmingly exceptional, as your humility is both iconic and heroic, making you a strong reference point today.”
“You are a true born leader par excellence, as demonstrated by your broad and remarkable experience and unwavering commitment to national development. As a peacemaker and bridge builder, you have collaborated with other national leaders to galvanise the economy and ensure the sustainability of national peace, especially during these times when hope is dwindling. We also trust in your patriotism and commitment to ensuring Nigeria’s economic growth and development is on the right path to attract investors.”
“We have witnessed your humility and generous spirit, which is truly inspiring. We are proud to state categorically that your deep commitment, tireless efforts, and sacrifices in the battle against oil theft and pipeline vandalism have led to increased production output in the nation’s oil sector. Today, the negative and frustrating narratives surrounding the oil and gas sector have shifted, and the issue of underdevelopment in host communities is becoming a thing of the past in the Niger Delta region.”
“We regard you as a beacon of hope for all oil and gas-producing communities in the Niger Delta region and Nigeria as a whole. You have immensely and positively impacted the Ijaw people, not just in Delta State but throughout the entire Ijaw nation. Your remarkable acts of kindness and patriotism have transformed our youths, women, and communities as a whole.”
“As a reputable and foremost youth organisation in Nigeria, the HOSTCON Youth Council of Nigeria firmly believes in your dedicated and transparent leadership and your efforts for the nation. Therefore, as you celebrate another year of life, we are optimistic about the greater impact you will continue to have on the lives of Niger Deltans and Nigerians.”
“We wish you a very happy and glorious birthday anniversary. May you enjoy good health and receive abundant blessings from God beyond your expectations.”
