Ebulejonu Igala FCT Salutes Chief Okai at 85
By Ahiaba Douglas – Abuja
The Ebulejonu Igala of the Federal Capital Territory, Hajiya Ramatu Ibrahim, has congratulated Chief James Okai on the occasion of his 85th birthday anniversary.
Hajiya Ramatu, an All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain and the North Central Women Leader of Team Tinubu 2027, described Chief Okai as a man who has enjoyed divine favour throughout his earthly sojourn. She noted that attaining the age of 85 in today’s Nigeria is a special grace from the Almighty God.
The Ebulejonu Igala extolled Chief Okai’s rare virtues, describing him as a humble, loving, generous, and kind-hearted illustrious statesman who has shown unwavering patriotism and loyalty to both the Igala Kingdom and Nigeria as a whole.
Continuing, the Jaruma Mata of Africa praised the celebrant for living a life of service to humanity. She noted that Chief Okai has uplifted countless individuals to prominence—people who otherwise may never have been recognized in society—a legacy she said would outlive him.
While praying for God to grant Chief Okai continued sound health, peace, and longevity, Hajiya Ramatu also urged Igala sons and daughters in privileged positions to emulate Pa Okai for the wellbeing of the Igala people and the prosperity of the kingdom.
