The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, on Monday described the national leader of the All Progressives Congress and former Lagos state Governor, Bola Tinubu, as a pillar in Yorubaland and Nigeria as a whole.
Mr. Fayose said this in a congratulatory message to mark Tiunbu’s 64th birthday. Mr. Tinubu was born on March 29, 1952.
A statement issued by Idowu Adelusi, the Chief Press Secretary to Mr. Fasoye, said the APC national leader had over the years proven to be a great political figure in the country.
“I heartily felicitate with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he clocks 64 on March 29.
“Whether one likes it or not, Asiwaju Tinubu has become a political pillar and leader, not only in Yorubaland but in Nigeria.
“He is a great politician who takes well-calculated political steps.
“I and the good people of Ekiti State join millions of Nigerians and Asiwaju Tinubu’s friends and supporters across the world to rejoice with him on this auspicious occasion.
“I pray that God gives him the grace to witness many more years in sound health in the land of the living,’’ Mr. Fayose was quoted as saying in the statement. (NAN)
