I extend my warmest congratulations to my dear classmates and the distinguished members of the 1st Set of Ansar-Ud-Deen Grammar School, Opapa, Oyo, as we commemorate the remarkable milestone of 40 years after graduation.
This celebration stands as a profound moment of gratitude to Almighty Allah for His unfailing guidance, protection, and blessings upon our lives throughout the past four decades. It is also a time for deep reflection on the solid foundation of knowledge, discipline, moral uprightness, and Islamic values that our noble alma mater instilled in us — values that continue to shape our personal lives, careers, and service to humanity.
I sincerely commend every member of our set for the resilience we have displayed and the diverse contributions we continue to make toward national development and the betterment of society. I also pay special tribute to our devoted teachers and administrators whose sacrifices, mentorship, and commitment laid the groundwork for the men and women we have become today.
As we mark this historic anniversary, may our bonds of friendship and brotherhood grow ever stronger, our shared memories remain cherished, and our collective commitment to giving back to our beloved school and the wider society be continually renewed. I pray that Almighty Allah grants us long life, sound health, peace of mind, and sustained success in all our endeavours.
Once again, heartfelt congratulations to the 1st Set of Ansar-Ud-Deen Grammar School, Opapa, Oyo.
Happy 40th Anniversary.
Thank you.
