“CELEBRATING A LIVING LEGEND AT 85″
It is with profound joy and deep respect that I, on behalf of the government and good people of Enugu South Local Government Area, heartily felicitate with our illustrious father, leader, and political icon, Chief Sen. Dr. Jim Ifeanyichukwu Nwobodo, CON, on the auspicious occasion of his 85th birthday.
Your life remains a shining light, not just to the people of Enugu South, but to the entire Enugu state and indeed, Nigeria at large; the reason you’re called _Anyanwu na-anwara oha._ Your service as the former Executive Governor of Old Anambra State, a Senator, and Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, is a testament to your passion for leadership, growth, and development. You are a leader whose footprints in politics and service to humanity are indelible.
At 85, you continue to inspire generations with your wisdom, resilience, and unwavering commitment to societal progress. We celebrate not just your age, but the rich legacy of impact you have built through decades of visionary leadership.
May the Almighty God continue to bless you with strength, good health, and peace. We are proud to call you our own, and we pray for many more fruitful years ahead.
Congratulations and happy 85th birthday, our dear father and mentor!
