I am delighted to identify with, and celebrate the remarkable attainment of a Bridge-builder and pathfinder of the New Direction Administration in Kogi State, His Excellency, Alhaji (Dr.) Yahaya Adoza Bello, CON, on this joyous occasion of his Golden Jubilee celebration.
Your Excellency, as one of your most inspired devotees, I have always admired and cherished your zeal, boldness, doggedness, audacity and progressive leadership disposition which have uplifted the youth, women and people living with disability to a whole new status.
Your selfless leadership styles, through which you offered a generous shoulder for us all to lean on, have become a source of strength, inspiration and a shining example for many of us.
Worthy of note is your historic and barrier-breaking leadership strategies that have unsettled the traducers and naysayers. However, the allergy of some people to honey does not negate the fact that it is naturally sweet. In the words of Robert Greene, “Deeds Do Not Lie”. I am proud of your remarkable footprints and legacies in Kogi State, particularly as a Bridge-builder.
I am therefore delighted and honoured with great sense of responsibility to join your numerous well wishers to celebrate and pray for your sound health, greater heights and immeasurable wisdom in the years ahead.
Once again, congratulations, Your Excellency, on this memorable attainment.
Prof. (Chief) Salisu O. Usman, PhD, fcia, FABEN
