At 60, your work remains a reference point for what it means to lead with both excellence and integrity. May this new decade bring you good health, renewed creative energy, and the satisfaction of seeing the seeds you planted continue to grow
TODAY, we celebrate not just a milestone of years, but a lifetime of service to Nigerian storytelling, to the creative industry, and to the people you have mentored along the way
As a filmmaker, you shaped the craft with vision and discipline. As former President of the Directors Guild of Nigeria and former Chair of the Federation of Nollywood Guilds and Associations, you built institutions that gave the industry structure, voice, and dignity. As a public affairs analyst and creative industry expert, you have consistently brought clarity and conviction to conversations that matter
For me personally, your guidance over the past two decades has been steady, generous, and always spoken with kind words. You have advised, challenged, and encouraged when it mattered most. That kind of mentorship is rare, and I do not take it for granted.
At 60, your work remains a reference point for what it means to lead with both excellence and integrity. May this new decade bring you good health, renewed creative energy, and the satisfaction of seeing the seeds you planted continue to grow
Here Dr. OKhai is to more stories, more impact, and more years of wisdom shared. The Light of God will continously shine on you.
Happy birthday, Sir.
With respect and gratitude and best wishes from me, my wife and your “grandchildren”
