HEARTFELT APPRECIATION MESSAGE

By Hon. Sulaimon Lekan Gadaff

I extend my profound gratitude to everyone—distinguished personalities, leaders, professionals, colleagues, friends, and loved ones—who celebrated me on my birthday. Your prayers, affirmations, and kind words deeply touched my heart, and I remain sincerely grateful.

I express my deep gratitude to His Excellency, Mallam Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq Executive Governor of Kwara State, for his fatherly care, leadership guidance, and heartfelt prayers.
My appreciation also goes to the State APC Party Chairman, Prince Sunday Fagbemi for his gracious words describing me as “a progressive-minded party stalwart and a shining example of youth relevance in Kwara State.” Thank you, sir.
I equally appreciate my leader and elder statesman, Barrister Salman Jawondo SAN, the supreme leader in ASA politics for his fatherly blessings and unwavering support for me and the entire Renewed Hope ASA.

My sincere appreciation extends to the pillar of the APC nationwide, Ambassador AbdulFatai Yahaya Gambari Seriki —a mentor whose selflessness knows no bounds. He’s the kind of responsible stakeholder I’d drop everything for, even if I’m having a private moment with my wife. I’d answer his call at 3am, no questions asked! because his intentions are pure and rooted in genuine love. In his words describing me as “a compassionate, people-oriented young leader whose actions reflect kindness and commitment to the welfare of his people,” I am truly humbled sir.

To my brother and friend, Hon Muktar Tolani Shagaya Member, House of Representatives (Ilorin West/Asa Federal Constituency), I say a big thank you. Your message, acknowledging my dedication to uplifting the vulnerable through the Gadaff Future Carefoundation, deeply resonates with me. May Almighty Allah give you every right tools to succeed and continue to guide you king .

To my longtime brother, ally, and adviser, Wahab Temidire (Aburo Gomina), thank you for your powerful tribute describing me as “a humble, selfless servant and passionate advocate for community development.” Your words strengthened me.

I thank Hon Abdulganiyu Toyyib Omotosho Commissioner I, LGSC, for his insightful prayers and recognition of my commitment to progressive ideals. May Allah reward you abundantly.

My unreserved appreciation goes to the number one citizen of our dear Asa Local Government, Alh. Shehu Yahaya Amasa and to my cherished brother, Hon. Mojeed Podo, Chairman Ilorin South Local Government, for their kind wishes. I pray Allah continues to guide them in leading our local governments toward greater prosperity.

Also, my appreciation extends to the DO for Asa Local Government, my elder and a prolific politician, Hon. Eji Lanre Adisa, who has consistently demonstrated maturity through every wave of political dynamics in kwara state.

I equally acknowledge the Princess Abake herself, Hajia Mariam Yusuf Abdullahi, for her heartfelt words. In her statement, she said: “Hon. Gadaff is not only widely known in the Kwara APC but deeply respected for his large and generous heart. His popularity is not built on noise or self-promotion, but on the impact he makes quietly and consistently. He is a man of patience, an epitome of calmness and wisdom, always ready to listen, guide, and support genuine intentions within the party structure.”

I deeply appreciate all party structures in Asa Local Government—the elders, youths, women, stakeholders, councillors, especially my ward councillor Hogan Jimoh Abdulganiyu (Ilaoja Ward) and Hon Mahmud Mumeen Olawale (Okeso Ward). My special thanks also go to my Alaye, Alhaji Akeem Alao Biola (isho), and all businessmen, farmers, hunters, traders, civil servants and most importantly, my political family—Alliance for Sustainable Kwarans, ably led by Alh. Razaq Lawal Nakowa . Your love is priceless.
