ā€œI am delighted to felicitate with you on the occasion of your 80th birthday.
ā€œYours is a life that has impacted our country in diverse ways, and you deserve all the accolades that can come your way as you attain this landmark age.
ā€œFrom one of the pioneer intakes in the Boys Company (later Nigeria Military School) in 1954, to Regular Officersā€™ Special Training School, Teshi, Ghana, and then to Mons Officersā€™ Cadet School, Aldershot, England (1959), you were prepared for service all the way.
ā€œYou contributed in no mean way in the war of peace, to keep Nigeria one, and thereafter served as Quarter Master General, Nigerian Army, and General Officer Commanding (GOC) 1 Division, Kaduna, among others.
ā€œUnder your tenure as Federal Commissioner for Information (1975-1977), the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), were established. Also indelibly imprinted in our history were your roles as Chairman, Festival of Arts and Culture (FESTAC 77), Chairman, Nigerian Institute of International Affairs, Chairman, National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, Chairman, Arewa Consultative Forum, and many others.
ā€œYour people know your worth, and they gave you the title Walin Garkida, and you continue to serve them faithfully.
