It was a day of pride and heartfelt celebration in the household of Hon. Rasaq Olusola Ajala, Executive Chairman of Odi-Olowo Ojuwoye LCDA, as his wife, Kehinde Muibat Ajala, achieved a major academic milestone by earning her Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree.
Overflowing with pride, Hon. Ajala took to the public sphere to pour out his admiration for his wife, hailing her not just for her scholarly excellence, but for the spirit and depth of purpose she exemplified throughout the journey.
The local government chairman, who is well respected for his leadership and community engagement, didn’t hold back in expressing just how much the achievement means to him personally and to their family.
“Congratulations on your well-deserved doctorate, Dear Wife Dr. Muhibat Omokehinde Ajala!” he wrote in a personal message.
“Congratulations on your incredible success! I always knew you could do it, and I’m incredibly proud of you.”
“You worked so hard and pushed your abilities to the limit to make this success happen.”
“This is such a proud moment for me, our children, and every member of our family.”
Describing the doctorate as a “monumental achievement,” Ajala emphasized the long hours, sacrifices, and relentless dedication his wife demonstrated over the years.
“I saw you work so hard every day to achieve this accomplishment, and I can’t think of anyone who deserves it more,” he continued. “Your hard work and perseverance have paid off, and we are thrilled to celebrate with you.”
He also used the moment to speak on behalf of his constituents: “On behalf of the Executive, Legislative Arm of Government, Management, Staff and the good people of Odi-Olowo Ojuwoye LCDA, I say a big congratulations to you, my dear Wife.”
