At least 45 serving and past presidents across the globe are expected to grace the 80th birthday ceremony of former President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, an official has said.
The Chairman, Publicity and Media Sub-committee of ‘Obasanjo at 80’, Dayo Adeneye, stated this on Wednesday while speaking with journalists.
He described Mr. Obasanjo as a worthy and exemplary leader worthy of emulation
Mr. Adeneye described the celebrant as the architect of modern Nigeria.
“Obasanjo is a worthy and exemplary leader, who, most leaders in the world, are emulating his leadership skills. Let me say that no fewer than 45 serving and past presidents and 700 important personalities in the world would attend the grand opening of OOPL this weekend,” he stated.
“The library is first of its kind in Nigeria and has over 42 million knowledgeable materials, books and documents, including Obasanjo’s primary school uniform, shoe, military cap and uniform, first car (Volkswagen) and other personal things”, he added.
He said despite the fact that the former president was no more in government, he still relates with present and past leaders in Nigeria and other countries, due to his vast experience in government.
Speaking in the same vein, Peter Okebukola, Chairman, Obasanjo at 80 Celebration Committee, described the former president as an epitome of knowledge, who has used his wealth of experience in government and agriculture to transform his country and others.
Mr. Okebukola said the history of Nigeria would be incomplete without mentioning Mr. Obasanjo.

A LIE, LIE CLOCK
YOU are aware Stella Obasanjo died and went to heaven ...
As she stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly gates, she saw huge wall of clocks behind her.
She asked, "What are all those clocks?"
St Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks.... Everyone on earth has a Lie-Clock.
Every time you lie, the hands on your clock will move."
"Oh," said Stella, "whose clock is that?
"That's Bishop Ajayi Crowther's. The hands have never moved, indicating that he never told a lie."
Incredible, " said Stella, "And whose is that one?"
St Peter responded, "That's Nnamdi Azikwe's clock.
The hands have moved twice, telling us that Zik told only two lies in his entire life."
"Where's my husband, Obasanjo's clock?" asked Stella.
Obasanjo's clock is in Angel Gabriel's office. He's using it as a ceiling fan, it's rotating with high
speed.
What of Lai Mohammed's?
His own clock is being upgraded *to be used as a helicopter rotor for its incredible speed!!

ReplyDeleteObasanjo that's in his 80s already. Angel Gabriel will ask him his real age one day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessed man, I read his book 'My watch' or so, he himself doesn't know when he was born because his mother couldn't remember the exact time because all those that were born before him only survived for days and they didn't even think he was going to survive. So he picked March 5th as his birthday.
ReplyDeleteHapi B-DAY in advance
ReplyDeleteLong live baba
happy birthday Baba obj!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday sir.
