My Dependable, fearless, and vastly knowledgeable and experienced in the art of politics, public governance and grassroots mobilization, we owe you – our Oracle of Politics – deep respect and gratitude for all your contributions and sacrifices as a worthy leader,mentor,and brother. You have consistently proven yourself to be a champion we can trust to defend the best values, interests and overall good of all our people.
You hate oppression and always oppose it no matter who fuels it. With this virtue, you have been and remain a stabilizing force in the complex political dynamics of our dear Delta State and, by extension, the Nigerian Project. People will always know where you stand and yours is always the solid ground of justice, equity and fairness.
I testify that you are a good elder brother to me. Putting primordial politics and related sentiments aside.
Thank you for choosing to be a great statesman.
Your bold, positive leadership impacts in public service are admirable on many fronts. Your fierce loyalty to your sound convictions even at the expense of your freedom and unimaginable attacks on your life is a special inspiration to so many young people in politics. Your principled politics is well appreciated. For this and more, we will always solicit Heaven’s attention to you, your dear family and all your other interests. Thank you, Most Distinguished Senator.
On this occasion of your birthday, I pray that the good Lord grants you more grace, wisdom and strengths to run your race of life well to the glory of His name. May God Almighty protect and keep you.
Happy Birthday, my Distinguished Senator!
Dr Ben Iwezu
