A past Secretary of the Young Lawyers Forum (YLF) Governing Council and Member, Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) National Welfare Committee, Auta Nyada has congratulated the President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Mr Olumide Akpata, who tied the knot on Saturday in a lavish traditional ceremony.
Read his statement made available to The Metro Lawyer (TML) below:
“Congratulations Mr. President.
I should talk about and celebrate your doggedness, your zeal, your fierceness, your capacity, your vim and vigor and I will, but not today. Today I choose to celebrate love, friendship and the “lil” drama that comes in-between.
First, I thank you for letting us share in your special day.
I wish you a lifetime of happiness, bliss and peace. May the love and friendship you share with your spouse today grow stronger as you grow older.
My father used to say that the relationship between a husband and his wife is like that of the popular cartoon characters, Tom and Jerry (I hope they sound familiar), though they tease and fight, they cannot live without each other.
I am happy you found your person and I am happy she found you too. I guess it is now legal to say Happy married life Mr. President!
May God bless you and yours.”
