Ode to Oluatuegwu @ 66 ‎‎By Clem Aguiyi ‎


‎He does not govern seasons. 
‎He builds decades. 

‎From CBN’s bold recast 
‎to Anambra’s new cast of infrastructures,  he turns numbers into nations, 
‎and vision into asphalt.

‎Fear bowed to law and order – Udo Ga-Achi. 
‎Sixty-two camps fell silent. 
‎Children walked back to school,  free, with 8,115 new voices teaching. 
‎Smart rooms lit. Out-of-school numbers fell lowest in the land.

‎Flyovers rise in Ekwulobia. 
‎Bridges meet at Aroma. 
‎A Fun City laughs in Awka. 
‎Clinics breathe again. 
‎Ambulances run. 
‎Health returns, free at birth.

‎He funds dreams, not handouts: 
‎N1.5 billion to small hands, 
‎20,000 youths taught to code, 
‎80 startups given wings. 
‎One Youth, Two Skills. 
‎A people equipped for tomorrow.

‎He mends more than roads. 
‎He mends values. 
‎Hard work over shortcuts. 
‎Truth over noise. 
‎Party lines crossed for the sake of the bridge. I stand as a living testimony.

‎₦757.9 billion, and most of it poured into capital. 
‎No borrowed tomorrows. 
‎Only foundations set, and skies prepared.

‎Happiest 66, Professor Soludo. 
‎Architect. Teacher. Builder. 
‎Anambra is rising in your image. May God bless your new age.
