As a political leader, who has held various prestigious political offices, he has, through his commitment to causes that seek to advance human happiness and his effective prowess in leadership.
For all that Coco-Bassey signifies both as a person and a political leader, his birthday remains symbolic. To be honest, I don’t think birthdays are such a big deal for the amiable leader, for it is not known exactly when he was in the news over a birthday bash despite his verve and vivacity. In a general sense, birthdays, whether hugely celebrated, solemnly marked or ignored, give one the picture of a life.
As often said, a birthday means a different thing to different people. Birthdays carry several and varied connotations, but all are emotionally determined. It is reminiscent of the day that one is delivered into a whole new world of wonder and uncertainties, the tides and storms of human existence.
No doubt, birthdays are important in our lives, as they either rekindle the flames of our aspirations or refocus our gaze into the deep horizon of life. By and large, a birthday is truly measured on the basis of the impacts the life makes in our society.
