Immortality and Inspiration as IEDPU's Scribe unveils Ilorin Emirate's Frontliners By Abdulrahman Abdullahi Kayode
With the upcoming public presentation of the remarkable book, "Ilorin Emirate's Frontliners," written by the highly talented and self-motivated Abubakar Imam, National Secretary of the Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union (IEDPU), I have no doubt in my heart that the writer has etched his name in gold. This extraordinary work is a testament to the rich heritage and outstanding accomplishments of selected prominent individuals from Ilorin, dead or alive, who have excelled in their respective fields and those whose humanitarian services to Ilorin community were outstanding.
As a proud Ilorin native myself, I cannot express enough the excitement and anticipation surrounding this momentous book launch, an event that is scheduled to take place this Saturday, 1st July, 2023 at the Banquet Hall, Opposite Government House, Ilorin. Abubakar Imam's diligent efforts in compiling the stimulating profiles of these successful sons and daughters of Ilorin and few non- indigenous residents of Ilorin with significant impacts on the community, have created an invaluable resource for our community. The book serves as a beacon of inspiration and motivation, showcasing the values and ethos that have played a pivotal role in their remarkable achievements.
Imam's dedication to promoting and preserving the unique legacies of Ilorin shines through every page of this remarkable literary and first of its kind masterpiece. His meticulous research and eloquent storytelling style breathe life into the experiences and journeys of these exceptional individuals, offering a profound insight into their trials and triumphs and the invaluable life lessons they have learned along the way.
The upcoming event, which comes up on the fourth day after the Eid-Kabir festival, will undoubtedly be a celebration of Ilorin's finest, where attendees will have the privilege of immersing themselves in the captivating narratives and remarkable achievements of these illustrious figures. It will be an opportunity for the community to come together, honor our heritage, and celebrate the indomitable spirit that resides within each and every one of us.
Moreover, the presentation of "Ilorin Emirate's Frontliners" holds immense significance for the aspiring young professionals of Ilorin. It serves as a clarion call, urging them to follow in the footsteps of these extraordinary individuals and harness the power of Ilorin's values to achieve their own greatness. This book will undoubtedly not only immortalize these unsung heroes and heroines but also serve as a guiding light, inspiring generations to come and empowering them to strive for excellence in their chosen endeavors.
On this momentous occasion, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to my brother, Abubakar Imam, for this exceptional achievement. His dedication, passion, and commitment to showcasing the immense talents and potentials within our beloved Ilorin community are truly commendable. I have no doubt that "Ilorin Emirate's Frontliners" will leave an indelible mark in the hearts and minds of all who read it.
Dear Dahiris, after sallah feast on the Eid day, the Durbar euphoria on the second day, other sallah based routine activities on the third day, let us cap our celebration up by eagerly awaiting the public presentation of this extraordinary book as we come together to celebrate our shared heritage, honor our successful trailblazers, and ignite the flame of inspiration within the hearts of Ilorin's young professionals, public servants, career civil servants, ulamas, entrepreneurs, artisans and philanthropists.
