From the moment you stepped onto the hallowed grounds of the Senate, it was evident that an Omoluabi, a paragon of virtue, humility and integrity had taken his seat. Yet, the world soon witnessed a remarkable transformation. You, the gentle scholar, evolved into a Babaluabi, a father‑figure whose expansive heart embraces countless children (sons and daughters) of Oyo North and beyond whose lives you have reshaped through the power of appointment and empowerments and the weight of responsibility.
Your legislative career reads like a modern chronicle of public service. As Chairman and Member of various Senate Committees, you have not merely occupied positions; you have occupied the space of impact.
Each of these roles bears the unmistakable imprint of your legislative genius: bills passed, motions carried, and oversight functions executed with razor‑sharp diligence. You have turned parliamentary debates into platforms for national transformation, and every word spoken on the floor has resonated with the hopes of the common man.
BAF — The Man, The Mission, The Movement for a Greater Oyo State
Your journey from Omoluabi to Babaluabi is not a mere play on titles; it is a living testimony of a man who, while rooted in Yoruba cultural heritage of honour and righteousness, has expanded his fatherly mantle to embrace thousands of constituents. Through juicy federal appointments, you have placed the right people in the right places, ensuring that competence, merit and dedication drive governance. The beneficiaries of your empowerments who are mostly young graduates, entrepreneurs, artisans, women’s cooperatives, and even veteran civil servants all bear witness that your influence stretches far beyond the marble chambers of the Senate.

In the tapestry of nation‑building, you have woven threads of integrity, empathy, and vision. Your legislative acumen has not only met expectations; it has set new benchmarks. You have shown that politics, when infused with service above self, can indeed become a noble vocation. The stories of transformed lives i.e children of others who now hold senior positions, communities that have received long‑overdue infrastructure, and policies that have lifted families out of poverty are the true medals you wear with quiet pride.
As you celebrate another year of life, we all pause to honour you. May the Almighty God, who has guided your steps thus far, crown you with abundant blessings. May He grant you the fulfilment of every desire that resides in your heart, may He protect you from every ill, and may He continue to endow you with wisdom, health, and longevity to serve Oyo North, Oyo State and Nigeria at large the more.
