Words are simply not enough to glorify Allah's grace, mercy and favour in your life as it has been Him who has kept you to see 80 good, fulfilling and remarkable years on earth.
Sen. (Dr) Jubril Martins-Kuye means different things to different people. For me, he is a political icon of inestimable value. No doubt about it that I had been involved in politics in Lagos before 1999. But it was Sen. Jubril Martins-Kuye whom Allah used to take me to national level as Personal Assistant as far back as July, 1999. It might suffice to place on record that those of us he took under his wings to Abuja in 1999 have today risen to the peak of political relevance in Nigeria. Indeed, JMK, has confirmed that you are not a success until you have successors. He is a great developer of human beings.
*JMK* started his leadership journey and history right from his days as a University student when he was the Secretary-General, Student Union Government, University of Ibadan. He is a passionate grassroots politician, an outstanding business man, one man who can go extra-mile for others so far he believes in their course, a founding member of the People's Democratic Party in Ogun State, a Distinguished Senator of the Federal Republic, a Former Minister of Finance (State), a former Minister of Commerce and Industry, and a community leader per excellence. You have not only excelled in politics, economics, commerce and industry alone. You have also been a pious Muslim no wonder you are the Seriki and Aare Muslimi of Ago-Iwoye and Ogun State. In fact, he is a complete persona.
Your footprints are unassailable, incontestible and indelible in Ago-Iwoye, your hometown, Ogun State, South-West geopolitical zone and indeed, in Nigeria as a whole. You are a leader whose belief and passion in the Nigerian dream stands him out among his contemporaries. Such outstanding qualities are why we your mentees and followers celebrate you every day.
As you therefore turn 80 today, I, *Rt. Hon. Adekoya Adesegun Abdel-Majid* on behalf of my immediate family members, the good people of Ijebu-North/Ijebu-East/Ogun Waterside Federal Constituency join hundreds of thousands of people, friends, colleagues, associates and followers to wish you many more years of Allah's benevolence and compassion on earth. You will not cry over any of your children or us, your ardent followers.
Happy Birthday to a political icon of priceless values.
Congratulations to a Distinguished Senator
