Press statement from the presidency...
President Muhammadu Buhari warmly felicitates with the national leader
of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as he
clocks 64 years on March 29, 2016.
The President believes the rising political profile of Asiwaju Tinubu
since he was elected a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in
1992 is a testimony to his forthrightness, diligence and doggedness,
the same qualities that had endeared him to the
electorate and given him all-round success as a private sector worker, a
businessman and two-term Governor of Lagos State.
As one of the pillars of the APC, President Buhari commends the
visionary leadership style of the Asiwaju of Lagos, who is also the
Jagaban of the Borgu Kingdom in Niger State, for creating a formidable
opposition party in Nigeria that worked vigorously within a short period
to oust a party that had been in power for 16 years.
The President assures the national leader that his patriotism and
commitment to democracy and good governance, and his generous spirit
will always be remembered and appreciated by generations of Nigerians.
He prays that the Almighty God will grant the Asiwaju long life, good
health, wisdom and prosperity as he steadfastly supports efforts to
promote the development of Nigeria.
