Happy Birthday To A Political Colossus @ 78. by blackrules1(m): 12:12pm On May 17, 2011
His Eminence, the Hon. Senator Abubakar Olusola Saraki, Medical Doctor and distinguished surgeon holding degrees of MBBS, LRCP and MRCS of the world-renowned London University, hails from Ile Agoro, one of the eleven Compounds constituting the core Agbaji quaters in the Ajikobi Ward of the Ilorin-West Local Government Area of Kwara State.

Dr. Saraki was born in Lagos where his father, Alhaji Mukhtar Saraki, lived a major portion of his life, on May 17, 1933.

Baba, marks his 78th birthday this morning at Ilorin, in 'Kwara Hotel' a 5-star hotel in the Kwara State capital.

Fellow Nairalanders; drop a Birthday-wish for the Waziri of Ilorin.
As I type, President Goodluck Jonathan is being escorted from the Ilorin International airport to the Emir's palace. . . sure, he came to say Thank You to Bukky and Happy Birthday to Olóóyè.

From me to the Waziri of Ilorin, Kwara's major sponsor of Haji pilgrims, Ilorin's most charismatic leader. . . I say Happy Birthday baba.

Your post clearly show you have limited knowledge of history. Who in this country has his cv. Former senate leader, father of governor, senator and ex honourable. Pls give it to him, he may have his shortcoming but we are all human

Wow! What a formidable cv! What an accomplishment!!!
ex- senate leader, father of governor, senator and ex[b]Honourable[/b]. indeed!
But wait o, i have a question for you. How has any of his past accomplishments ameliorate/d the myriad problem of poor kwarans?

Years after the man is still engaging in amala politics with kwarans and they like "sufawos", are following him like eran ile ya (ramadan goats).

Black rules,

is your emir a Yoruba or Fulani/Hausa?

How can you call yourself a Yoruba and yet vote for a Hausa man to preside over your land?

@Olawalebab,

I suppose my question to you, then, would be: Are you Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani?

Hopefully, that wouldn't be too hard for you to comprehend.
