Senator Bola Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State, has
congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari on his 79th birthday.
Tinubu, in a statement signed by him on Friday in Lagos,
described the President as a great reformer and democrat.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader said
beyond his admiration and gratitude for the President’s achievements in office,
he was proud to call him a friend and a brother.
“Your legacy as a great reformer and democrat will live long
into the future.
” You are a man of high intellect and exceptional
character,” he said.
Tinubu said that despite prevailing challenges, the
president had continued to steer the ship of Nigeria through the most turbulent
of waters.
“Your tenure in office has coincided with some of the most
difficult and challenging times this country and, indeed, the entire global
community has faced.
“Economic crises, global pandemics, insecurity and
criminality have all played a role in making the past few years difficult for
the people of our great country.
“Yet, despite it all, you continue, calmly and with uncommon
dignity, to steer the ship of Nigeria through the most turbulent of waters.
“I, therefore, wish to appreciate the unseen and
underappreciated work that you have done and continue to do to guide Nigeria
ever nearer to its manifest destiny,” he said.
The former governor of Lagos said that through the careful
leadership and measured governance of the country, the President’s
administration had achieved many things for which the people could be proud.
He said that under President Buhari’s watch, previously
abandoned infrastructure projects had been completed all over the country.
“Unheralded reforms and measures taken by your
administration are also taking effect to bring greater transparency and accountability
to governance,” he said
“I wish you a wonderful birthday and many more years in good
health and renewed strength.
“Happy birthday Mr President,” he said.
