HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO...; »

A refined politician
An accomplished gentleman
A towering personality
Integrity personified
A bridge builder
A Pathfinder
A strategist
A man of many multilateral means
A man with a date with destiny
A godly politician as affirmed by GYB

He came from a dim tunnel of rural dwelling (Ogugu) into limelight; like a small seed planted, he sprout to heroic stardom.

The simplicity of his nature, largeness of his heart ❤️ to accommodate people, his commendable propriety, pose him as a successful role model for many.

Chief Edward David Onoja CEDO as he is fondly called, by all account is a Colossus whose reputation is as big as his FRAME

He has demonstrated physical prowess, friendly fineness, social renown and examplary leadership. He is as humane as he is urbane.

A believer of the word and supreme being. A man that believes in the supreme worth of individual. A man who believes that every right implies a responsibility, every opportunity an obligation and every possession a duty. He believes in the sacredness of promise that man’s word should be as good as a bond, that character not wealth, power or possession is a supreme worth.

He believes that the good Lord in his infinite mercy has bestowed mankind with sundry gifts and whatever gift bestowed on any man is given to him by God in sacred trust and man should use such gift to promote love, peace ☮️ and unity among the people irrespective of race and creed.

To the man CEDO, giving is a matter of previlege, not a proof of ability nor loyalty. In his word, loyalty is to God and not man. I found succour in his benevolence and generosity. A man whose generosity and goodwill towards fellow men knows no ethnic, religion, social and cultural bounds.

His loyalty to the course he believes, consistency of his advocacy for Ebigo , National cohesion and Integration rather than sectional politicking leaves me not in doubt that his commitment to the NIGERIAN YOUTH PROJECT is a life long Agenda and not just the momentary demand for political exigency. Truly, great leaders are born and not made.

The air of humility and hospitality that radiates around him is commendable and contagious.

On behalf of myself, family and my immediate constituency ( the youth ), we join the Angels and host of heaven to celebrate and felicitate with you on your birthday. May the good Lord continue to Bless you, Increase you, give you good health and grant you all you seek and desire.
