AKETI, YOU LIVE ETERNALLY, NOT JUST AT 70 – CHIEF OLUSOLA OKE, SAN
I celebrate you today with fond memories, dear friend, brother, professional colleague and age group, Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, SAN, CON, as the nation commemorates your posthumous platinum birth anniversary.
The expansive times we shared together while you were here as professional colleagues in the legal profession and political partners in search of a better Ondo State and Nigeria were notably worthwhile, engaging and developmentally impactful.
Your earthly journey and activities left with us indelible marks of brilliance, brutal frankness, unmistaken courage and extraordinarily humorous affableness, which are touchstones for a humanity that is divided, stressed and endangered.
Your loud voice in advocating for fiscal federalism, state police, devolution of power and other allied matters, that will birth a new Nigeria, and the courage with which you defended the people of Ondo State against the vexations of marauders, while in the saddle as the Governor, remain not just landmark achievements but prototypes for continuous engagements and improved existence.
As we celebrate your 70th birth anniversary today, with satisfactory notations of your past sacrificial and impactful living, as a mortal, we are assured that the great virtues you represented while on earth would continue to engender meaningful imbibements and transformative deployment.
Happy Posthumous Platinum Birthday Anniversary, dear friend, brother, colleague and partner!
Rest on in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Chief Olusola Oke, SAN
