Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on March 24, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Dikilu Bageta! The man whose defensive skills at Free State Stars F.C. were so legendary, strikers still wake up in cold sweats remembering your tackles. Your moves on the pitch were smoother than Congolese rumba and tougher than grandma's cooking—truly unforgettable!

From Kinshasa to Bethlehem (the South African one!), you've shown us how soccer is played with passion, style, and a smile brighter than stadium lights. May your birthday be filled with as much joy as you brought fans every match day—and may your celebrations last longer than extra time in a cup final!
