A very Happy Birthday to a Governor who is respectful of the past , mindful and conscious of the present and sensitive about his place in future. This is path to and of honour that you have not departed from.
Today I have the greatest joy and delight to join millions of your admirers , family and friends to celebrate you on the occassion of your birthday
I have been a part of this day with you for a number of years, with a lot of delight, I relish our fond memories and I am thankful to God that your modesty , life of moderated use of power has remained with you, your natural capacity to remain yourself with unusual comportment has become an abiding source of great strength.
Your ability to remain yourself even with the power that your position has conferred on you marks you out differently, compared to some people .
What people say is a friend in power is a friend lost, to a large extent , with you , you have chosen to be different , [ its a choice ] not only by my judgement but a lot of people can relate to this, yours is not for photo ops but the real man within.
I am mearsured and restrained consciously because a lot of people will misconstrue my write up if its dripping with encomiums, to some it will suggest that my palate need to be filled, but you know me. What I write is what I believe in . And so on this day, I ll just say these few words and thank you so much for remaining who you were to a large extent. I ll save the rest for years to come
By the grace of God , you are not a friend lost yet. Thank you
You are in my prayers, your success I will appropriate, and I pray for continued wisdom and grace for the job that Ekitis have given to you.
I pray for additional strength and vision to accomplish what No one in this position before you had accomplished.
I believe you are on the track to achieving that, your capacity to bring contending sides together will be an episodic reference in the history of our state.
