“He was the President, University of Ibadan Alumni Association Worldwide and still participate actively in the affairs of the university.
“Dr Emina, as you celebrate your birthday, we thank God for the sincere way you deal with humanity, we thank Him for giving you the means to achieve desired results in whatever you do, we thank Him for making your people, the good people of Ebu community to recognise your gifts and made you the Ode Ega of Ebu, we thank Him for your wonderful family, we thank Him for using you to play special roles in the annual Maris Lecture and we thank Him for making you a role model to people that you may not know.
“We pray that God will continue to preserve you in good health and wisdom; we pray that he will continue to grant your heart’s desire and make you remain Kemi Emina the goal-getter.
“Once again, congratulations and happy birthday anniversary Dr Kemi Emina.”
