Former President Muhammadu Buhari has joined the family, friends and the nation in celebrating the 90th birthday of guru journalist, columnist and publisher, Prince Samson Oruru Amuka Pemu, otherwise cherished as "Uncle Sam”, saying that those years would be written in gold in the annals of the nation’s history.
Buhari spoke in a statement signed by his Spokesman, Garba Shehu, on Thursday, recalling his beautiful relationship with the journalist and publisher, who, as he said, has used his years in the media to spread light.
His words, "I owe a deep debt to him. They call him ‘Sad Sam,’ from the name of his column, but the distinctive style of his communication was spreading light. Not only did one get information from reading him, one also got also vision, which is very valuable.
“Uncle Sam used his pen as a broom for cleaning up the rot in society. Few could match his crusading journalism. By continuing to awaken the government and society, the Vanguard newspapers, which he founded, continues to be in the forefront of service to the nation.
“I wish him many more years in good health and happiness, and continued service to his profession and the nation."
