Today, 25th November, 2025, we rise in gratitude and admiration as we celebrate His Excellency Ambassador Sarafa Tunji Isola OFR—a man whose life reflects the true meaning of service, humility, and transformational leadership.
From your earliest days as a Ward Youth Leader, through your steady rise as Local Government Party Secretary, your impactful stewardship as Chairman, Abeokuta North Local Government, your strategic contributions as Special Adviser to the Minister of State for Finance, and your distinguished tenure as Secretary to the Ogun State Government, you have consistently embodied excellence, loyalty, and uncommon vision.
Your service as Honourable Minister for Mines and Steel Development further portrayed your patriotism, while your sterling performance as Nigeria’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom remains an inspiring chapter in our nation’s diplomatic history—one marked by intellectual depth, cultural dignity, and globally respected leadership.
Your journey is not just a personal story; it is a national lesson, it is a lesson in discipline, a lesson in consistency, and a lesson in how far vision, integrity, and hard work can carry a man who is determined to serve humanity with sincerity of purpose.
On this auspicious occasion of your birthday, Good Governance Advocates (GoGA) joyfully celebrates an Icon, a Mentor, a Bridge-Builder, and a silent but steady architect of human and community development.
Your Excellency, you are a light to leaders, an inspiration to youths, and a symbol of the greatness we envision for our dear state and nation.
As you step into another remarkable year, we pray that the Almighty continues to strengthen you, preserve you, and crown your efforts with greater fulfilment, sound health, and divine direction. May your life continue to be a testimony of grace and an instrument for good governance across generations. Age with boundless blessings and renewed strength.
Congratulations, Sir!
Comrade Quadri Olanrewaju Mudasiru, is the Convener, Good Governance Advocates (GoGA)
