The eve of the January 26, 2025 is still fresh in the minds of the attendees as the serene ambiance of Osborn La Palm Royal Resort in Port Harcourt transformed into a hub of joy and celebration as  Chief Dr Anthony Oko Ikpor hosted a grand birthday party in honor of his beloved wife, Lolo Chinenye Theresa Oko-Ikpor in what some friends and associates see as a show of love and devotion to someone that really deserves such.

The event was described as a testament of love, devotion, and family values, drawing dignitaries, friends, and family members who gathered to celebrate the remarkable woman at the center of it all.

It was one singular occasion that highlights the essence of sharing love, commitment and affection and in essence rekindling of family ties which most people believe has reduced, due to challenges and financial burden in most of the families.

But for Chief Dr Anthony Ikpor, he went extra mile to make sure that the lavish venue was adorned with elegance, reflecting the warmth and grace of the celebrant.

Ranging from beautifully arranged floral designs to the impeccable lighting that set the mood, every detail was thoughtfully curated to ensure an unforgettable evening as guests were welcomed with a touch of class and hospitality that underscored chief, Oko Ikpor family's commitment to excellence.

However, in the heart of the festivities, Lolo Chinenye Theresa OKO-Ikpor stood radiant, surrounded by loved ones who danced to the admixture of old  school music and the modern.

Speaking in  an exclusive interview with newsmen, she shared her profound joy and gratitude for her husband's thoughtful gesture.

Her words: "Anthony has always been my rock, and this celebration reaffirms the strength of his love. His care for me and his family is undeniable, and I pray that God continues to grant him health and long life to enjoy the fruits of his labor," she said, her voice filled with emotion.

Explaining, further on the new trend where family love is fast eroding away and some families share Love only on a Valintine's Day, Lolo Tessy Ikpor took the opportunity to inspire women with her heartfelt message.

Hear her: "To every woman out there, I urge you to stand by your husband. Be true to yourself and remain steadfast through life's ups and downs."

Adding, "Marriage is a partnership, and together, you can conquer anything." She admonished.

"Today, is more than birthday celebration but a day to renew our family tie and unflinching love for each other”

More so, the evening was filled with laughter, music, and heartfelt moments.

The atmosphere was electrifying as guests mingled, danced, and shared in the couple's joy.

The highlight of the night was a surprise tribute from Chief Anthony Ikpor, who expressed his deep admiration for his wife and thanked her for her unwavering support and love. He prayed that God will grant her more fruitful years ahead with good health.

As the event drew to a close, Lolo Ikpor expressed her appreciation to everyone who attended. "I am truly overwhelmed by the love and kindness shown me today.

Thank you for making this day so special and for being a part of our joy."

The birthday celebration was more than just a party—it was a testament to the enduring bond between  Chief Dr Anthony Oko Ikpor and Lolo Chinenye Tessy Oko-Ikpor, a reminder of the beauty of love, and an inspiration to all who attended. It was, indeed, a night to remember.

As the lights dimmed and the guests departed, one thing remained clear: the love story of Dr and Lolo Anthony Ikpor is one for the ages—a beacon of hope and resilience in a world that sometimes forgets the true essence of devotion.

High point of the occasion was the cutting of the birthday cake.

In attendance were members of Government Secondary School Afikpo Old Boys Association PH branch, Afikpo Youth Leadership Forum (AYLF), Committee 30 Friends of Port Harcourt, Afikpo Committee of Friends (ACOF), Rotary Club of Port Harcourt Eco and other Rotary club members in Port Harcourt, management and staff of Sterling Bank among others
