Ogbomoso—
City of courage,
Land of heritage and hope,
Blessed beyond measure
With sons and daughters
Whose hearts beat for her rise,
Whose love for progress
Cannot be counted nor contained.
Among these noble lights stands a name,
Rooted firmly in service and sacrifice—
Alhaji Monsoor Ayoade Ejide,
Of Ilé Imam, Masifa, Ogbomoso.
He is an elephant of many virtues,
Great not by noise, but by nature:
Kind in spirit,
Gentle in conduct,
Unassuming in strength,
Generous beyond expectation,
An inspiring giver
Whose hands never tire of lifting others.
He devoted his life to the growth of his people,
Sowing seeds of hope across Ogbomosoland.
In entrepreneurship, he built pathways;
In education, he lit lamps—
Awarding scholarships to the brilliant and the indigent,
Ensuring dreams were not buried by poverty.
To widows and widowers,
He became shelter and sustenance,
Extending arms of compassion
Where silence once lived.
A man of vision,
He anchored his enterprises at home,
Choosing Ogbomoso above distant gain,
So that the jobless might find dignity,
And opportunity might know no discrimination.
Today, January 1st,
The earth marks another chapter of his journey—
A new year added to a life well spent in service.
With gratitude and honor,
The Scoopchase celebrates you,
Wishing you abundant grace,
Sound health, enduring prosperity,
And a long life filled with peace and fulfillment.
May your legacy continue to speak,
Even louder than words.
