If your path with highly cerebral Hon Tunji Bello has once crossed, you will marvel at his level of wizardry and uncommon brilliance. Engaging him in a conversation will further sweep you off your feet with his vast knowledge and ability to contribute spontaneously on many issues.
Since his journey on earth, he has shown that he’s one of the few who have enjoyed uncommon grace and favour thrown at him by his creator. His name is synonymous with success and an intimidating victorious career as a seasoned journalist, lawyer, astute politician, environmental scientist, Political scientist, and technocrat par excellence. The former Special Adviser to Late M.K.O Abiola is also a man of the people whose simplicity, humane gait, and philanthropic gestures marvel many. If there is one reason to be happy and even roll out drums engaging praise singers in excitement, it has to be the celebration of a milestone achievement or age. Bello gave thanks to his creator for sparing his life to witness another age, gliding gracefully into the league of a sexagenarian. As he celebrated his 60th birthday on Thursday, July 1, the political scientist in his usual manner was welcomed by all sundry, who shared in his joy.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and water resources would have loved to throw a high octane soiree with invitations sent out to top guests but he is a man who sees beyond his interest and puts vested interest to the best advantage of humanity. The former Secretary to the Lagos State Government spent the day with his family, close associates, and friends who showered him with enormous gifts and gigantic birthday cakes.
