Former Governor of Ekiti state, Dr. Kayode Fayemi recently marked his 60th birthday with Commemorative Symposium and Launch of the Amandla Policy and Leadership Institute in Abuja. The calibre of people in attendance speaks volume about his influence and leadership style, two years after leaving office.
It is not uncommon in Nigeria for celebrants to celebrate birthdays in a glamorous way or in whatever way they deem fit to mark the joyous occasion. For some, it’s a day to roll out drums and organise merriment for visitors and well wishers.
But for the former former governor of Ekiti state, Dr. KayodeFayemi who appeared not to be satisfied with the achievements, the impacts and the indelible mark he had imprinted in the sand of time, it was another opportunity to continue to give back to the society with the launch of Amandla Policy and Leadership Institute.
