The Chairman and Chief Excecutive Officer, UcheKinze Limited, Sir Kinze Isaac Okonkwo has congratulated the Minister of Power, Oloye Adebayo Waheed Adelabu on his 54th birthday.
In a statement he made available to newsmen in Ibadan on Saturday, the Philanthropist commended the unwavering dedication of the Minister to both state and national development, especially the power sector.
He noted that as a first-class graduate of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and a great achiever, Chief Adelabu has consistently demonstrated excellence throughout his distinguished career.
Said he, “From his days as the Executive Director at First Bank, where his leadership left a lasting impact, to his role as Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), his contributions to Nigeria’s financial sector have been profound and far-reaching.
“His time as Chairman of the Oyo State Security Trust Fund further underscored his commitment to public service, leading efforts to equip and train security personnel, ensuring a peaceful atmosphere in Oyo State during the tenure of the late Governor Abiola Ajimobi.
“Now, as the Minister of Power, Adelabu’s experience and courage in addressing the nation’s power challenges is evident. Despite initial hurdles, his resilience and visionary leadership has garnered widespread praise as he continues to make strides in improving the sector.
“On behalf of the people of Oyo State and the entire non Indigenes, I proudly wish the “working minister” HAPPY BIRTHDAY and continued success in all his future endeavors.
“As Nelson Mandela once said, “What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”
Sir Kinze prayed God to grant the Minister more grace, strength and wisdom to achieve more success in the task ahead of him.
