Elsewhere, I had posited that “ every age, every generation, produces an iconoclast, an eclectic, eccentric, a quirky and unusual figure, who ironically represents the measure, the values, and indeed, the essence of that age or generation and becomes the icon of that age or generation.
They are not conventional persons, they are peculiar, odd, aberrant, curious, capricious, quaint, queer and even erratic. Somehow, in spite of their unusualness, they remain unusually lovable. They are unusually unobtrusive yet their presence is forceful.”
These words are as true for that occasion as they are for Kanu Godwin Agabi CON, SAN who turns eighty on July 9, 2026.
