“As we move forward, let us continue to draw inspiration from your example, your expertise, and your generosity of spirit. Let us strive to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve, just as you have done so selflessly over the years.”

In a chat with this reporter at the event, Oni maintained that the 60th birthday remained a watershed in his life. “I have seen what is possible and what is not possible. We have to apply ourselves to the right values.”
