My dear Aburo, it is with joy and heartfelt gaiety that I celebrate with you on your 70th birthday anniversary.
You are indeed a woman of strength, of demonstrated valor and probity. You have grappled with challenges both as a professional lawyer, and as a politician with tact, with sincerity and with determined purposefulness.
You have been a wonderful ambassador to womankind, as you demonstrated excellence and exemplary hardwork in the various positions of leadership that the good Lord has placed upon you.
Erelu, you served selflessly and with candor as a minister, and as a party leader, as a mother and as a wife.
You are indeed a pride to all of us. As you continue to serve with devotion and sacrifice, I pray that the good Lord continues to bless you and your household with good health, with His grace and with His kindness.
Once again, happy birthday, ππππ my dear Aburo and remain blessed always.
