Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), has said it is ready to partner with Port Harcourt Club, to boost social activities in the Rivers State capital.

NDDC managing director, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, disclosed this yesterday when members of the executive of the club paid him a courtesy visit in his office at the commission‘s headquarters in Port Harcourt.

Ogbuku stated that the commission was open to sustainable relationships that would bring back the past glory of Port Harcourt city, so that the present generation would be proud that in their time the social life in the Garden City was revived.

He recalled with nostalgia the serene atmosphere created by the older generation, insisting that such beautiful scenery would be revitalised to keep the old memories alive.

The NDDC boss stated that the present generation would not allow social activities in the city to stagnate or retrogress, promising to galvanise progressive residents of the city to pull resources together to build a society that would be stronger and socially active.

Ogbuku used the opportunity to request for the revival of the W.W. White football tournament amongst secondary school students in the state.

The president of the Port Harcourt Club, Hon Soberekon Dikibo, while congratulating Ogbuku on his reappointment as the managing director of the NDDC, applauded President Ahmed Bola Tinubu, for making the right choice and described him as a true Port Harcourt man.

As a mark of honour, the leadership and members of the Port Harcourt Club, conferred on the NDDC managing director an honorary membership of the club.
