It is with profound gratitude to Almighty God that I give this goodwill message on behalf of the good people of Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu Federal Constituency to felicitate with you and your family on the occasion of your Seventieth Birthday.
Indeed, that you have entered the exclusive “Septuagenarian Club”, calls for celebration and thanksgiving to the Most High, who was preserved, protected, guide and guard your path at all times in all ways.
Over the years, in all your professional, community and humanitarian endeavours, you have consistently displayed commitment, zeal and passion for excellence. In every intervention, position and assignment, you have carved enviable niches for yourself as a resourceful professional and veritable community leader.
In your over three-decade professional and public service career, where you held various command positions which culminated in your appointment as the Commander, Brigade of Guards and General Officer Commanding 3rd Armoured Division, Jos, of the Nigerian Army during the early years of Nigeria’s return to democracy, you distinguished yourself creditably in achieving corporate goals and objective.
Sir, on the occasion of your Seventieth Birthday, I wish you more fulfilling years ahead. I pray that Almighty God continues to grant you good health, joy, wisdom, strength, peace and long life to enjoy the fruits of your labour in the service of humanity, Amen.
HON. YUSUF TAJUDEEN (TeeJay)
