Several prominent Nigerians including President Muhammadu Buhari, have been sending goodwill messages to warmly felicitate with former Lagos State Governor and Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Sen. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his 65th birthday.
President Buhari, in a special release by his spokesman, Femi Adesina said he was joining all members of the APC, political and business associates of the Asiwaju of Lagos, his friends and family, in celebrating another milestone in the life of the great leader, whose foray into politics ushered in a better understanding of building consensus to achieve historical feats, like unseating an incumbent government.
Said Buhari “As he turns 65 years, I believe the Asiwaju raised the bar for many political leaders across the country as a two-term governor of Lagos State, and also bequeathed a style of leadership that completely altered the landscape of the commercial capital.
Buhari then went ahead to recall his pleasant and intellectually enriching encounters with the Jagaban of Borgu Kingdom over the years, the President re-affirmed that the nation has benefitted a lot from the personal sacrifices, political experience and intellectual foresight of the APC chieftain, and still stands to gain more.
President Buhari prayed that the almighty God will grant the Asiwaju good health, longer life and more wisdom to serve his country and humanity.
