Deputy Director of Centre for the Propagation of Etikan Traditional Heritage (CEPETH) Felicitates With S. Ola Ajimisan, the Founder and Director of the Centre on His Birthday

 

Irumole of Literature and A Cultural Enthusiast.

A robust intelligentsia and superlative creative. Massively and astutely committed to breeding new generation of Elites.

An unapologetic cultural enthusiast. You have painstakingly and tenaciously carved out a niche for yourself. Today, you shine brightly and illuminate the world like the luminous sun.

A voracious reader, a selfless Leader, an out-of- box-thinker. A creative Omnibus. Who never goes yonder, but in touch with both his root and realities in the western hemisphere.

You could choose not to publish a thing on indigenous knowledge system or our rich traditional heritage. But beyond the need to publish as a scholar, you took upon your broad shoulders to consistently thrill the world with our rich, uncommon and unparallel cultural heritage in a bid to cosmopolitanized Etikan Kingdom and Ilaje Nation.

Your passion and commitment to this course is like a massive sun flare. It can't be killed! You have brought Etikan Kingdom and Ilaje Nation to the fore front of global intellectualism.

A fecund publisher, and cultural revivalist- through the pages of books, you drummed and sang the praises of Olikan. You regaled the world with the rich history and traditions of Etikan Kingdom. You didn't leave out Olùgbọ, Amapetu, Maporure, their history, ingenious culture, and illustrious people. The world now bows to your wisdom and people from far and near visit our pages, and many travel distances to hear you speak at conferences.

Haaa! Irumole Asa àti Iṣẹ. Massive Academic Timber, and Beast of Literature.

People now conveniently talk about Ijusu, Umale and Malokun Festivals and wait eagerly for the celebration and funfare, like they do pilgrimages to/in Mecca and Jerusalem. Obele Ajogwa among the Ilaje is gradually assailing global. Very soon, international tourists will begin to visit our soil to bear witness, see how illustrious, ingenious we are and unveil how these folster ancestral veneration and unity among our people.

You baptized me into indigenous knowledge system. Yes! Beyond what I ever known. You broaden my knowledge daily.

You are doing a great deal to rejuvenate, propagate and globalize our cultural heritage. Who could have done this, and selflessly too?
Our ancestors and Eledumare himself must have placed upon you this mandate.

Ojaabogun is blessed to have you. I am particularly blessed to have you. Ilaje Nation is blessed to have you. Humanity is blessed for the Gift of you.

I find it immensely fulfilling to have you. I therefore felicitate with you on this auspicious day of your birth.

Happy birthday, Literary Irumale! Stephen Ajimisan
