In Ward Four, we have learned that leadership is not measured by noise. Some men walk gently, yet their footsteps echo like talking drums.
Sir Eric Imonitie is one of such—a leader whose strength sits quietly, like an iroko that does not shake before you know its age.
He leads like a calm river—never rushing, never boasting, yet shaping the land with steady power.
Where others carry titles like umbrellas, he carries responsibility like a farmer carries his hoe—with purpose, patience, and pride.
Sir Eric’s presence gathers people the way early morning sun gathers dew from the leaves. Not by force, but by warmth. Not by fear, but by trust.
Our elders say, “Oyakhamoh—your true wealth is the people who stand by you,” and truly, his wealth is seen in the unity he nurtures, the respect he earns, and the harmony he brings to Ward Four. Leader no dey small. Leadership na seed— the value is in the fruit it bears, not the size of the seed itself. And Sir Eric has become that fruitful tree whose shade the community now enjoys.
Steady, firm, and deeply rooted, he remains a reminder that real leaders are not loud—they are simply felt.
