MY BIRTH DAY 2023: AWESOME ARE YOU ALL, MY PEOPLE
As-Salaam Alaekum Sir! Good Morning Sir! Happy Birthday Daddy!
Those are the Early Morning Words that woke Me up yesterday, My Birth Day, coming from My Kids (I call Them, My Alubarikas), accompanied by their Mother, All seated round Me on My bed, simply to wish Me well and pray for Me on the Day's occasion, which they, of course, knew I don't celebrate (flamboyantly), but observe annually, with High Level Deep Reflections on My Entire Life (happenings in the Past & Present with a view to the Future).
And this Year 2023 was never an exemption, as I woke up and started the day with Deep Reflections and then saying Alhamdulillah Rabil Al'Ameen (Thanking My Creator, Almighty Allah, S.W.T.) with an Islamic song, Mo Dupe, by Yusuf Olamide Olootu", an Islamic Gospel Singer.
A Day that actually began with messages (first ever coming from My Wife, then My Mother, then a Close Friend and then My Extended Family Members) followed by calls & other messages, all of which are best wishes & prayers, coming from You All, My People, across All Works of My Entire Life (Professional Career Colleagues & Clients in Accounting & Taxation Management & Consultancy World; Political Career Leaders & Colleagues in the Socio-Political World and even the Religious World), through which, You All, Truly & Sincerely made My Day, thus pushing Me to further had Deep Reflections, in My usual way, about Life & Humanity with respect to the Humanhood.
My special appreciations to My Wife, Kids, Mother & Family; My Political Leader, Mother & Principal, Hon. (Chief/Mrs.) Bola Shobowale (Yeye), to whom I Am & Will Forever Be Politically Loyal; My Papa & Principal Manager in Professional Accounting & Taxation, Elder William Adamson Afemikhe (FCA); My Other Colleagues/Leaders in My Political Office, My Daddies/Egbons in the CDC/CWC/CDAs and the entirety of My Friends home & abroad.
I Am Most, Truly & Sincerely Grateful to Everyone, You Are All Awesome.
Gbogbo Wa Yoo Se Opolopo Odun L'Aye, Amin Yah Allah!
