Mr Adegboyega Oyetola, the governor of Osun State has congratulated Nigeria’s business magnate, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, on the occasion of his 65th birthday anniversary.
Oyetola described the business tycoon as an exceptional entrepreneur whose indelible imprints on the socio-economic advancement of Nigeria cannot be over emphasised.
Governor Oyetola, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Ismail Omipidan, hailed the foremost Nigerian industrialist for his significant contributions to the nation’s economy through his chains of business in all sectors of the economy.
According to him, Alhaji Aliko Dangote is one of the few Nigerians who have used their earned wealth and resources at their disposal, to impact on the nation and humanity as reflected in his philanthropic gestures to the young and the old.
Oyetola extolled the President and Chief Executive of the Dangote Group for being the source of inspiration to the growing businessmen, and beacon of hope to young Nigerian graduates as one of the largest employers of labour in the country and beyond.
“On behalf of my family, the government and the good people of Osun, I congratulate Alhaji Aliko Dangote on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
“Indeed, you are a trail blazer in the organised private sector, a detribalised Nigerian, strong pillar to the nation’s economy and philanthropist par excellence, whose positive impacts in the lives of the people can not be quantified.
“We pray Allah to grant you wisdom, good health and long life as you continue to render quality and selfless service to God and humanity,” Oyetola added.
