Prince Orebiyi Emmanuel Celebrates Chief Adebanji Aiyelabowo on his birthday
Today, I pause to honour not just a man, but a rare embodiment of loyalty, strength, and brotherhood. Words alone can never truly capture the depth of what you represent to me. You’re not just a friend, a confidant, or a godson, you are a brother in every sense of the word. A steadfast companion, and my best man on the day that marked a major chapter of my life.
Our journey began in the crucible of student leadership, from the halls of NANS, NAKOSS, NAOS, to the vibrant corridors of the NATIONAL YOUTH COUNCIL OF NIGERIA. In those days of youthful passion and purpose, we forged a bond that has stood the test of time. From comrades to kinsmen, from colleagues to family, our story has been written in resilience and sealed in trust. We’ve walked through fire, waded through storms, endured silence, and celebrated triumphs. And yet, in all, the grace of God has kept us unbroken, unshakable, and undefeated.
I look back and bless the day our paths crossed. For through your presence in my life, joy has multiplied, strength has increased, and hope has never been far away. God blessed me richly when He gave me you. Very few are fortunate to call someone like you “brother”, and I count myself among the most favoured. You have carried your crown with humility, worn your titles with honour, and stood by me in my darkest hours without faltering. You’re that rare soul who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
As you mark another year today, I raise my voice in gratitude to the Almighty, may this new age unlock divine favour, bold opportunities, uncommon peace, and boundless joy. May the journey ahead be greater than the ones behind. May the grace that lifted you continue to sustain and establish you.
Amen 🙏.
Age with strength, reign with wisdom, and shine with greater glory, my beloved brother and friend Chief Obasun Aiyelabowo Adebanji Austin, the Obasun of Alu Kingdom.
Thank you for being you.
I celebrate you, I honour you, and I salute your unrelenting loyalty.
Happy Birthday once again, brotherly! 🎂🎉🎂🎉
