Like a blast of the wind
With the sound of a trumpet;
The heralding of a new damn ,
The birthing of a renewed hope
With the drive of missionary zeal.
As the blast of the breath,
Only as yesterday;
When this journey began ,
From milestones to milestone;
Your strides in landmark legacies are here to stay.
So we all one,
The high, the great and the low;
In joint acclamation to your deeds ,
Reaching to the east and the west;
Touching the North and south of country.
So here we stand in unison.
In this assemblage of your admirers,
To pour encomiums,
The great leader of our time;
President-Elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he turns 71

Giants strides made by man are usually relieved with pomp and pageantry .while some roll out the milestone amidst glass clinging.

Numerous personalities with eyes on the verdict of history use such occasions to reflect on their contributions to the betterment of their societies .For Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu ,President –elect of the Federal Republic of Nigeriai ,he would have wished that the occasion of his 71st birthday anniversary on `29th March 2023, be observed with an annual colloquium. But the man is not an ordinary man today as he is President in waiting of the African giant.
The vision of Jagaban is to build a prosperous, highly educated, technology driven pace setting Nigeria. He believes that the fastest and only way to change the populace is through education. While most Nigerian elites are busy manipulating ethno-regional difference to personal advantage, Tinubu has always being vanguard of harnessing the differences to build a restructured united Nigeria.
