In the province of Bauchi, where history speaks,
Resides a man whose elegance inspires our decisions,
Rt. Hon Danlami Ahmed Kawule, his name,
An epitome of virtue, his actions ablaze.
A trailblazer, not bound by earthly power,
His wisdom weaves a brilliant understanding,
With bravery as his guide, he takes the lead,
Devoting himself to humanity, a noble creed.
Bauchi’s fertile land, a cradle of ancient times,
Gave birth to politics and untold stories,
From the reign of Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa,
Kawule emerges, a steadfast light to uphold.
In life’s vast symphony, where destiny intertwines,
Danlami’s heart beats for the needy,
Philanthropy is his anthem, selflessness his aim,
Generosity and kindness, his heart’s guiding principle.
Courage as his compass, he leaves his mark,
Both old and young, listen with reverence,
For Ahmed’s benevolence knows no boundaries,
He bridges gaps, answering tradition’s call.
Through distant lands, he walks gently,
Extending a lifeline where hope once perished,
With open hands, he uplifts burdened hearts,
His empathy flows, touching every soul.
Integrity shines, untarnished by recognition,
Silent giving, untouched by fleeting fame,
In the depths of darkness, true heroes emerge,
His kindness, an everlasting melody.
Fountain of wisdom, yet deeply connected,
To the customs of his people, their spirits intertwined,
In Bauchi’s Emirate Council, he finds his place,
A guardian of tradition, with humble grace.
Travels far, embracing the plight of others,
A shining star in the darkest of nights,
His touch brings solace, igniting new dreams,
The less fortunate, his unwavering focus.
Within the realm of nature, an untamed rhythm,
In arid deserts, his charity’s warmth,
The scorching sun finds solace in his shade,
As he uplifts, with love and mercy displayed.
To leaders, let his noble stance inspire,
To serve with selflessness, to give and restore,
For amassed wealth means nothing without a compassionate heart,
Kawule’s giving spirit, a masterful art.
In the realm of dedication, he stands tall and true,
A sanctuary of hope, his actions inspire,
May eternal strength guide him on his quest,
His path illuminated, divinely blessed.
As the laughter of children follows in his wake,
Danlami Ahmed Kawule, for the sake of goodness,
An everlasting fire, forever fueled,
Igniting compassion, never subdued.
