    Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has joined others to congratulate the Chairman of the Southern Senators and member of the Senate representing Lagos East, Senator Adetokunbo Abiru, on the occasion of his 60th birthday anniversary.

    Senator Abiru, the Chairman, Senate Committee on Banking, Insurance and other Financial Institutions clocked 60 on Monday, March 25.

    Governor Sanwo-Olu, in a statement issued on Sunday by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, described Senator Abiru as a seasoned banker, administrator and lawmaker, who has used his various positions for the progress of Lagos State and Nigeria as a whole.

    The Governor said Senator Abiru contributed his quota to the growth and development of Lagos State as Commissioner for Finance between 2011 and 2013, and now as two-term Senator, representing the people of Lagos East Senatorial District.

    He said: “On behalf of my darling wife, Ibijoke, Government and the people of Lagos State, as well as leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress, I congratulate Senator Tokunbo Abiru on his Diamond Jubilee celebration.

    “Senator Abiru has displayed excellent leadership in the banking sector. He showed leadership during his tenure as the Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Polaris Bank Limited before he left the bank to become the Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

    “As Commissioner for Finance in Lagos State, Senator Abiru brought many positive reforms to the Ministry of Finance in the State.

    “As Senator, Abiru has contributed immensely to the legislative business in the Red Chamber. His inputs to national growth, especially on the floor of the Senate are pragmatic testament to his visionary leadership.

    “As he celebrates his 60th birthday, I pray that God will increase him in good health to enable him render more service to humanity, Lagos State and Nigeria.”
