Estate surveyor Ayodele Gbadebo SangoSanya
has graciously and gloriously celebrated his 80th birthday at Bishop
Adelakin Howells Memorial Church, Hogan Bassey crescent, Surulere Lagos,
Diocese of Lagos Mainland Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion
). In celebratory of God’s faithfulness in his life, his amiable paragon of beauty spouse Princess Adenike Omolola SangoSanya, his children, grandchildren, relatives, Egbe Ifelodun club members, Professional colleagues, sons and daughter–in law, friends and well-wishers joined him at service of his four scores birthday celebrations. Estate Surveyor SangoSanya read the first reading from the epistle of Philippians (4:4-9) while one of his pretty daughters read the book of Deuteronomy (28:1-14) and, again the Gospel reading was from John (15:1-5).
In delivering the sermon the priest said that
Estate Surveyor Sangosanya was a self-made man having lost his dearly beloved
father to the cold hands of death at a very tender age. The priest said the
celebrant is a responsible family man, a good born-again child of God who
worships God. In truth and faith speaking to the celebrant and the entire
congregation, he said that the celebrant should largely forget the past and
uncommonly press forward for the unimaginable blessings to continue to shine upon
him always.
He told him to be Godly and kindly forgive
anybody who might have offended him in one or the other in the past because as
a child of God he is not expected to harbor grudges in his heart. The priest
spoke litany of kind words on behalf of the celebrant adding that Estate
Surveyor SangoSanya is a large hearted philanthropist par excellence who gave
to all and sundry who have approached him for one assistance or the other at
various times. He told the congregation how the celebrant handled an assignment
the church assigned to him deftly and when the assignment was concluded, that
the husband of Princess Adenike Omolola SangoSanya did not collect a dime from
the church adding that when the church asked him of his motives of not asking
the church to pay him, he did say that he used to the exercise to assist in the
spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as Jesus Christ Himself commanded his
disciples to preach to all nations of the world beginning from Jerusalem,
Judea, and Samaria and to all parts of the globe.
The priest particularly commended the spouse
of the celebrant for the uncommon love and attention she accorded her beau
always and he prayed for the entire family for the unimaginable blessings of
God to continually shower on them. At the reception floor the chairman of the
occasion Brother Michael Kasim narrated to the audience of how he met with the
celebrant in the United States of America more than three decades at a shopping
mall in the United States of America.
He told the audience how the celebrant bought
a costly watch for his wife rather than buying for himself adding that, that
shows how lovable the celebrant is to his spouse Princess SangoSanya and again
he narrated to the audience how the celebrant introduced voluntary donations at
their Egbe Ifelodun social club and that the said donations are used to support
the down trodden masses in the society.
Brother Kasim told the audience that as a
banker with United Bank of Africa (UBA) that he and the celebrant also met
regularly and that the celebrant is heavily a principled man, also he is a very
resourceful man and lastly a man whose carriage is very uncommon in all ramifications.

he too spoke kind words on the behalf of the old young man Estate Surveyor
SangoSanya adding that when the celebrant celebrated his 70th
birthday that he was chairman of the event and again at his 80th
