Governor Dapo Abiodun on Monday extolled the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, as he clocks 69.

In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, the governor described Tinubu as an exemplar, icon of democracy and true elder statesman.

According to the statement, Tinubu’s giant strides in business, politics and governance, have stood him out among his contemporaries in the country.

While noting that the former Lagos State governor had laid a solid foundation for continuity of good governance in Lagos, Abiodun added that Tinubu, through his political astuteness, ensured that the southwest and indeed Nigeria, benefit from the progressive politics of the APC.

The governor prayed to God to grant Tinubu long life amid good health, as he inches towards becoming a septuagenarian.

“On behalf of my family, the Government and the good people of Ogun State, I felicitate the National Leader of our great party, All Progressives Congress (APC) and Statesman, H.E. Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his 69th birthday.
