On this joyful day for my family and I, I thank the Almighty God for seeing me through many travails. To God be the glory. Also, permit me to thank His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, for the confidence reposed in me. I once again thank my foster parents, Esijolomi and Omerewumi, who moulded me, as a piece of clay they received from God, into what I am today. Unfortunately, Daddy is gone, but by the grace of God, my family and I had the great pleasure of celebrating my mother's 90th birthday this year. Other than God, NO OTHER HUMAN BEINGS have been more responsible for making me into what I am today than these two angels, who in my mother tongue are referred to as my Olayemi. I thank the angel in human form, and personification of all the goodness that it is possible for a human to have, in the person of Malam Nuhu Ribadu, a man most beloved of God. I thank His Excellency, Ambassador Sola Enikanolaiye, a most distinguished Nigerian diplomat and the Honourable Minister of State for Foreign Affairs. Sir, perhaps only you and I know how indebted I am to you. Finally, I thank God for my wife, Hana, who has created the blissful and peaceful environment that helped me find patience throughout my nomination, confirmation, posting, and final approval and acceptance by the host nation as Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the United Mexican States.

Dear People of Iseyin, I Have Heard You and Because of My Love for Aso Ofi (Aso Oke) and Nigeria, I Will Attend in Person or Be Represented!

Happy birthday, Seyi Tinubu, the First Son and best scion that any father could wish for. As a liege to your father, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, you have been a bulwark against siege. You are not just contemporary; you have also been an accessory to the greatness and success of every anniversary in the Renewed Hope supremacy, with more than an honorary mention in the CBM glossary and history. As I said when I hoisted the CBM flag on Mount Kilimanjaro, because of you, the City Boy Movement has brought and continues to bring equity, joy and improvement. Omo ologo ko le bi omo ti o l’ogo! Very few people ever achieve two of the greatest knowledges: knowing when they were born and why they were birthed. To God be the glory, you know both. Therefore, on the occasion of your forty-first birthday, which comes up tomorrow, my family and I wish you a happy birthday and extend to you our warmest right hand of fellowship. May God bless the parents who bore you and the children you begat. Bemigho Reno Omokri
