My dear brother, Olumide, happy birthday to you!
You are an exceptional friend, colleague, and leader. On this special occasion of your birthday, I would like to take a moment to appreciate the impactful and incredible journey that we have both shared.
Over the years, we have worked together in numerous capacities within and outside the NBA, including relying on your wise counsel during my time as Chairman of NBA Lagos to serving in various capacities under your leadership while you were President of the Bar. Every chapter with you has been meaningful and memorable, and I am grateful for the deep bond that we share.
Thank you for being an amazing friend, a trusted collaborator, and a source of inspiration. As you celebrate your birthday, may this year bring new opportunities, happiness, and all the wonderful things you deserve.
“Your Guy”
