"His Political Pedigree Will Serve As Asset For Good Governance" - Buhari Hails Tinubu At 71

In a statement signed by Femi Adesina, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Buhari eulogized Tinubu, saying history is beckoning to lead the country from May 29th.

The president acknowledged the experience and achievements of Tinubu over the years, through which he has contributed to the development of the country in the private and public sectors.

Buhari added that Nigeria would experience effective governance under the administration of Tinubu because he had the political pedigree and experience to achieve this by May 29 when he would take over the leadership of the country.

He also prayed for his well-being as well as that of his family.

The statement read: “President Muhammadu Buhari rejoices with National Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC) and President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he clocks 71, March 29, 2023, with history beckoning to lead the country from May 29th.

He said, ”The President joins members of the President-Elect’s family, especially his wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, business partners and political associates in celebrating the remarkable age, heralded with many years of experience and achievements in the private and public sectors, which prepared him for the historic win on February 25, 2023.

“President Buhari believes Asiwaju’s warmth, friendliness and generosity has set the pace for a network of friends, home and abroad, that will shape his presidency with requisite expertise to guide the economy, and consolidate on the investments of past leaders, particularly in people-first development and infrastructure.

“As the President-Elect prepares to take over mantle of leadership at 71, the President affirms that his political pedigree from the 90’s, active role in party politics, being elected Senator and later Governor of Lagos State, and diligent involvement in structure of leadership at the Executive and Legislative levels for many years, will serve as asset for good and effective governance.”

“President Buhari prays for the wellbeing of Asiwaju and his family,” Adesina added.

KanyiDaily recalls that Bola Tinubu had directed that special prayers and thanksgiving service be held tomorrow instead of his birthday colloquium.
