In Barbie’s heartfelt message, he described her special man as the ‘most inspirational man of the century’.

“My best friend is 40 today! If I were to write another book today 10 years after my first, I’d still say that my biggest achievement at this point in life is to be married to you Mr. President.

“Looking back on my life, I feel like I have lived all my life at just 40.My father was 40 years old when he had me and 40 years later, here I am at 40 with 4 lovely children. I was 4 when our country was taken over and now am 40. What’s with the number ‘4’ and me??

Most of my idols never made it to 40 – Jesus, Bob Marley, Malcolm X, Dr Martin Luther King, Herman Basudde, Steve Biko, Philly Lutaaya, Thomas Sankara, Tupac, etc. I have had the rare opportunity to live this long.For all the mistakes, I take the blame. I hope to use the lessons learned in my next phase of life. For all the accomplishments, the glory goes back to God.I want to thank all of you wonderful people – friends and family for being part of the first part of my life. They say life begins at 40, so let’s toast to life.”
