ASIWAJU OLAYINKA FASUYI AT 70!
“As a man thinketh, so is he.” This timeless biblical truth speaks to the essence of a man’s character and behavior.
The Asiwaju I know is a man who is constantly thinking about how to improve the lives of others—young and old alike.
He is a unifier, bringing people together with purpose, to achieve transformative goals that set Ijesa land apart and uplift the lives of the Ijesa people.
In everything he does, he provides transparent and painstakingly detailed accounts—down to the last kobo.
He honors every single donor equally, no matter the size of their contribution.
Every goal he sets is not only met but often exceeded and always ahead of schedule.
Through all of this and more, Asiwaju has consistently embodied many values. He is:
Kind. Empathetic. Considerate. Generous. Ethical. Focused. Selfless. Reformist. Accountable. Reliable. Passionate. Disciplined. Respectful. Positive. Honest. Optimistic. Exemplary. Transformative.
Truly, I do not know if there is anything this man cannot—or would not—do for Ijesa land.
Asiwaju is a most honorable gentleman. God made only one of him—singular and unique.
May you continue to be the Eyin Oju Eledumare that you are.
What an immeasurable blessing you are to our land.
Happy birthday, Asiwaju! May your days be long and your impact eternal.
