Eboigbe Salutes Elder Omofuoma at 77

Former Federal Commissioner with the Revenue Mobilization, Allocation and Fiscal Commission, RMAFC, Victor Otaigbe Eboigbe, has saluted Elder Austin Omofuoma, the first African Director of global conglomerate, Guinness, on his 77th birthday anniversary.

Eboigbe, who delivered the personally signed message, described the Septuagenarian as a man with rare qualities, one of which is that, almost effortlessly, he combines the number of his age with the character of a true elder, leader and sage.

"At 77, I need not emphasize the fact that you have come a long way. I can only point to the fact that you have worn well the number, the years and character of the sage archetype. That is, if we put into the picture the manner you attract truth seekers to your person, like bee to honeycomb," Eboigbe wrote in his message.

While praying God to grant the elder statesman more healthy years and bliss, Eboigbe urged him to continue to be the leader he is whose conduct, which he described as. "a treasure of untold value" gives hope.

"Your counsel has been enriching just as your esteemed leadership has remained a treasure of untold value. If it were possible, I would wear the voice of Nightingale to celebrate you. Certainly, I do not have anything close but I want you to know that it is the voice I hear each time I recall the kind of man and leader that you are."
