President Bola Tinubu has joined others to congratulate political scientist, public administrator and Federal Civil Service Commission Chairman Prof. Tunji Olaopa on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
A reputable intellectual and advocate of public service reforms and institutional strengthening, Olaopa rose to the zenith of his civil service career. Before retiring, he served as Permanent Secretary in various ministries to establish the Ibadan School of Government and Public Policy. He later lectured at the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies in Kuru, near Jos.
President Tinubu, in a statement from the office of his spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, commended Prof. Olaopa for his contributions to nation-building through his engagement in public service and interventions and his numerous books and writings, which have helped shape public policy.
The President charged Prof. Olaopa with instituting reforms that adequately position the service as the bedrock of purposeful administration and governance.
President Tinubu equally extended his warmest wishes to the esteemed professor, hoping for many years of good health and meritorious service to the country.
