Today, we honour not just the passage of time but the enduring legacy of Senator Lola Ashiru, a beacon of leadership, wisdom, strength, purpose, and heartfelt compassion.
To many, he is more than a political mentor he is a father figure, a guide, and a source of unwavering support. As a respected statesman and man of uncommon grace, his life is a repository of political insight and resilience. He has left indelible marks not only in Kwara South but across Kwara State and Nigeria as a whole.
Senator Ashiru’s ideology, passion for people, and quiet strength in leadership have deeply impacted those privileged to know him. His tireless contributions to the development of communities and the nation remain unmatched, inspiring not only the present but also generations yet to come.
His life’s journey marked by courage, patience, and enduring service is a beacon of what true leadership should be: visionary, honourable, and filled with purpose.
On this special day, I pray that Almighty Allah grants him long life, perfect health, and overflowing joy. May his light continue to shine brightly, guiding others, as he always has.
Happy Birthday, Sir, with love, admiration, and gratitude.

Bilqis Jumoke Sanni
