My dear brother, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu,
On this auspicious day of your birth, I extend my warmest and most heartfelt felicitations to you. As a compatriot, an elder, and a witness to your enduring service to our beloved country, I celebrate not only your life, but the profound sense of duty, patriotism, and integrity you embody.
You have remained a rare gift to Nigeria—an unwavering sentinel who has consistently placed the safety and stability of our nation above personal comfort. At a time when many seek convenience, you chose sacrifice; when others sought rest, you embraced sleepless nights in defence of our people. Your loyalty to Nigeria is not merely spoken—it is lived, proven, and deeply felt across the nation.
Your role as National Security Adviser has demanded courage, clarity, and relentless commitment. You have carried these responsibilities with a calm strength that inspires confidence and renews hope. True national service requires a spirit prepared to deny itself comfort for the collective good, and in this regard, you stand as a shining example for generations to come.
On this special day, I pray that the Almighty continues to guide and protect you, grant you wisdom in all your endeavours, strengthen your resolve, and reward your sacrifices with peace, fulfilment, and divine favour. May the years ahead bring you renewed strength, deeper purpose, and greater triumphs in the service of our dear nation.
Happy Birthday, my brother. Nigeria is proud of you; history will remember you kindly.
With profound respect,
Alh. Sadiq Mohammed
