Rabbi Ben Shemang ,
Yesterday you wrote “Retirement Sweet Fa” and I smiled.
.
I smiled because you might be retired, but your restless spirit of excellence, professionalism and creativity is riding high on adrenaline and dopamine.
.
You are retired but restlessly not tired.
.
It was about this time, a week ago that I dragged myself into your surprise Retirement party and soaked in all the words and roses that were offered in your honour 🎖 in your lifetime.
.
I had shared my thoughts about you but one which I will reecho here is that ” There will never be another Ben Shemang”! Bosses in your mould come once in a work span and I can only pray that the very ones you sprinkled lessons dust on, passes it on.
.
I am grateful to God, that you did not retire while I was in Lagos; I would have missed out on drinking from your pot of professionalism and wisdom.
.
I pray I impact many more souls than you have done Rabbi because e get why!
.
May your later days be greater Sir.
.
Thank you for your brand of Leadership and for being a detribalised Sholio Man.
.
Etubom Ben, Mazi Shemang, Otunba Ben, I know you will have an assignment for me soon. See you then Sir.
.
Best wishes,
Glory Uzoamaka Ohagwu
