Your Majesty, as the oldest serving monarch in the entire Northern Nigeria, one is particularly happy that you have not only distinguished yourself creditably but also consistently given honour, pride, and integrity to your throne as the paramount ruler of Bunu Land. Also, as an embodiment of culture and tradition, you have extended noble virtues, and moral values to the institution in Okunland, and Kogi state.
