I have been unable to lace words together as usual to prepare a literary meal for my readers for sometime now. The reason behind that is because my phone has been disappointing me but the excruciating hardship under the leadership of the sleeping oldman and corrupt clearing agent wouldn't permit me to acquire a new phone.
Today, I have been unsuccessful in remaining mute because circumstances within the day have propelled me to break that stumbling block of the unworking phone.
The 11th day in the 11th month of the year is not just a wonderful day but it is also a great day on which a man with uncommon, enviable and distinguished leadership qualities was brought forth. He has invariably demonstrate his exceptional leadership skills to the admiration of anyone who gets closer to him. He doesn't discriminate against anyone even if you dislike him.
This young man is committed to keeping to his promises. He hates betraying or deceiving a friend. He has an exceptional attribute of sustaining his relationship with people he meets. Once you establish that comradeship with this young man, you are part of his anointed children. No one can touch you and go free. He spares no effort of his to fortifying and defending you any time anywhere.
His exceptional leadership skills has left so many teeming young men and ladies very productive and fulfilling in the country. He has mentored and continues to mentor so many teeming youth of which I am one.
Senior comrade Denis Andaban is a very brilliant and prolific young man who is so loving and caring as far as human relation is concern. One may not know him because one is not closer to him. One may also hates him not because of anything but because one has personal problems with him but the facts remain that he is a humble, discipline, respectful workerholic. Ever since I met this young man, he has remained unrepentantly focus in the pursuit of his vision. One of the things I learned from him is that he doesn't give opportunity to anything to bar him from pursuing his dream.
Comrade Denis Andaban is a senior columnist who has won the NUGs Excellence Awards UEW-K two consecutive times, a records yet to be broken. Through his mentorship, I have been able to also excell in a number of endeavours of which writing is one. I am so proud being associated with him. He is an impeccable communicator and usually referred to himself as a village boy from DBI. His likes are uncommon in this era.
Inspire of all his brainy academic and political leurals, one would expect to see some signs of arrogance in him as many do but alas, that is uncharacteristic of him. Senior comrade Denis and mentor, remains down to earth. He has high level of respect for everybody irrespective of your background.
His continuous learning even from children made him very powerful. I want to believe that is his secret because we have a saying that the proof of wisdom is the wish to learn even from children.
As culture of the writing fraternity demands, I wish to use this piece to celebrate you on this special day of yours. It is my fervent prayer that the Almighty God continues to guide your going out and your coming in and also bless you and your family abundantly. May all your labour never be in vain. May all your enemies fall into their own traps they set for you.
Circumstances rendered the spirit down during the day, the reason why I celebrate you at this time. My best wishes and felicitations. Happy Birthday Senior Comrade.
