President Muhammadu Buhari in glowing tribute celebrates the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, ahead of his 64th birthday on March 29, 2016
According to a statement by Femi Adesina, his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, "the rising political profile of Mr. Tinubu since he was elected a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 1992 was a testimony to his forthrightness, diligence and doggedness.
He added that it was the same qualities that endeared to the electorate and gave him all-round success as a private sector worker, a business man and two-time governor of Lagos State.
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.
He 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.”
