A chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State, Dr Kazeem Adesina Abidikugu, has described the life of an Ibadan chief and politician, the Bada Olubadan of Ibadan land, Chief Muyiwa Makinde, as worthy of emulation as he celebrates his birthday.
Mr Muyiwa Makinde is the elder brother of the Oyo State Governor, Mr Seyi Makinde.
Abidikugu, who is a former aspirant for the House of Representatives for Ibadan South East/North East Federal Constituency in the 2023 general elections, congratulated Makinde on his birthday in a statement on Wednesday, saying he has been living a life worthy of emulation.
The United Kingdom-based psychiatric consultant described Makinde as a distinct politician who donates generously to the progress of the masses.
According to him, I rejoice with you as you celebrate your birthday today and wish you many more years ahead in good health.
“I have seen you over the years as a role model, an exemplary leader, and a worthy chief of Ibadan land.
“You are a distinct politician, one with a large heart. Without holding any political office, you have been very generous to many people in and outside Ibadan.
“Many people have testified to your philanthropic gestures. You are living a life worthy of emulation, and I am proud of you as a politician, as an Ibadan Chief, and as a Pan-Nigerian.
“I use the occasion of your birthday today to wish you more service to Ibadan Land, the Yoruba race, and Nigeria as a whole.
“We pray to God to give you more years in good health to serve humanity”.
