Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has described former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a leader and pillar in Yorubaland and Nigeria as a whole.
The governor stated this in a congratulatory message to mark Tinubu’s 64th birthday.
In a press statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Idowu Adelusi in Ado-Ekiti on Monday, he said the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) 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.
“Asiwaju Tinubu is a good case study when one talks about political resilience and doggedness and no wonder he now ranks among the leaders of this great country.
“I pray that God gives him the grace to witness many more years in sound health in the land of the living,” he said.
