MY TEN KOBO; FESTUS ADEDAYO@48

Today I celebrate my brother, my Ibadan neighbour, first class mediaman and a Doctor of letters, Festus Adedayo,Ph.D, on his birthday.
Omo Ilu Abo, in Akure Oloye mekun,
Owo oko Ronke, Baba omokunrin, baba omobirin,
Youngest Media Adviser to mo ri ri.

If there is ever a man who does not believe in borders, or be limited by boundaries,
That man is Festus Adedayo.
Suave, articulate, unassuming.
Humble, tenacious, accessible,
A proud ambassador of Nigerian Tribune.
This would be lawyer is your quintessential example of he who goes where no man had gone before;
Media Adviser to Chimaroke Nnamani in Enugu,
Media Adviser to Abiola Ajimobi in Oyo.
The first man to serve two governors on both sides of the river Niger.
Truly, only the deep can call to the deep.
Happy birthday, Paddy mi,
Who knows Ibadan, and knows Layipo,
Tribuneman, Great Akokite, Great UIte.
Wa gbo, wa to, wa fi owo pau, wa fi erigi je obi.
Igba odun, odun kan.
Many happy returns, FA.
