Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago congratulates the Emir of Suleja, Malam Muhammadu Awwal Ibrahim, on his 83rd birthday.
In a birthday message through his Chief Press Secretary, Bologi Ibrahim, the Governor describes the celebrant as selfless and one who has spent most of his lifetime in serving humanity from the public service, to politics and to traditional institutions.
Governor Umaru Bago acknowledges the numerous contributions of the Emir to the growth and development of Suleja Emirate, the State, and even Nigeria.
He says the octogenarian has written his name in the sands of time by laying a solid foundation as the first elected Governor of the State (1979–1983) and which other administrations have continued to build on.
The Governor further observes that the Emir has done so well in preserving and strengthening the cultural heritage of the Emirate.
While appreciating Allah for being so gracious and kind to the celebrant, the farmer Governor promised to continue to support the Emirate for its overall growth and development.
He then prays that Allah will continue to bless and be merciful to the Emir, grant him more wisdom, strength and good health to continue to provide selfless service to the people of his Emirate and, by extension, the State.
