MARKETING EDGE celebrates iconic Ogunko on birthday
In the journey of life, some personality reaches a point where even words like success, legendary, and greatness, seem small in front of their stature.
To celebrate with him on his birthday, the MARKETING EDGE Group, led by John Ajayi as the MD/ CEO, has extended its best wishes to Pastor Gbenga Ogunko.
On this quintessential day, the incredible leader, a true visionary, a barnstorming orator, the backbone of colossal organizations and one of the best minds of the corporate world was born.
Pastor Ogunko, former Executive Director, Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc and former Guinness Director of Corporate Affairs, is a hard-working and dexterous personage whose vivaciousness and energetic words are pure magic. He is an unprecedented force in the corporate and business world.
Commenting on the occasion of his birthday, Mr. Ajayi, Publisher / CEO, MARKETING EDGE Group, said: “If I may be allowed to use my poetic license, I will parody the legendary William Shakespeare’s work on Julius Caesar in celebrating your day today. The legendary literary genius said and I quote:
“When beggars are born, no Comets are seen; heavens themselves blaze forth the death of Princes.”
“Today, a great day is not the day for the death of Princes, nor the birth of beggars! Indeed, today, a glorious day, is the birthday of a great Prince, a great humanist, a great Pastor, a great boss, an iconic teacher, a rigorous Scholar, disciplinarian, and a brand management guru per excellence in the personage of Mr. Gbenga Ogunko. Simply Mister!”
A humble, amiable, knowledgeable and unapologetically fastidious man with all eyes for the details, Mr. Ogunko in addition to being a renowned brand communications professional of no mean integrity, is a no nonsense boardroom guru with renown pedigree and remarkable feat in his kitty.
Mr. Ajayi continued: “Sir, these past few years have been remarkable. Without you doing the stock taking, we your boys and mentees can confirm that you have done well. The Lord has done very well and very great things for you.
Sir, the occasion of your birthday today goes beyond the cakes in the halls, the wines on the dining settee and the champagnes in the lounges. Still sir, your birthday event is not for sober reflection because you typify joy, you represent happiness, you are an excitement to all generations below yours. We today, unlike yesterday, must celebrate you beyond the clanging of cymbals or the beating of drums as you remain an enigma and God’s special gift to humanity.
“You have lived well and have impacted and imparted generations. You are still living well and will continue to live well to impart and impact more people. On behalf of myself, family and the entire MARKETING EDGE and MEDIA EDGE families, I want to congratulate and rejoice with you today on your birthday.
“I want to specially thank God for gifting you to humanity. You have not disappointed your Maker in your being and your creation. I rejoice with you, sir, and pray to the good Lord to continue to be with you, protect you and elongate your life so that you will live much longer in good health of mind and body.
“Happy birthday, boss. Igba Odun, odun Kan ni.”
