Tinubu At 71: No Gift Is Greater Than The 2023 Electoral Victory – Arisekola
The publisher of The Street Journal magazine and Ibadan-based businessman, Mogaji Wole Arisekola has felicitated with the President-elect and National Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his 71st birthday anniversary saying no gift could be greater than his victory at the 2023 polls.
A statement personally signed by Arisekola on Wednesday and made available to NigerianEcho said: “As Nigeria’s president-elect and former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu turns 71, I salute his sacrifice, resilience, selflessness and nobility in always placing the welfare and unity of the nation above self, backed with the vision of a greater Nigeria through investments in people, institutions and governments, without minding tribe or creed. He is a rare breed in our body politic.”
The media personality further describes Tinubu as a man of courage and a political colossus that has helped to deepen the country’s constitutional democracy.
According to Arisekola in the birthday tribute, “It is an opportunity for me to recognise all that Tinubu has done as a leader not for just for his region but across the Niger. He is a detribalized Nigerian, a leader of the people, and a politician with a difference.
“In the face of opposition, he resolved and insisted to be on the opposition leaning towards the Federal Government, he joined forces with the progressives to defeat an incumbent President and thankfully by God’s grace he is the President-elect. It is better to celebrate people that have contributed immensely to the development of the society and I must say Asiwaju’s greatest 71st birthday gift is his electoral victory on February 25, 2023.
“Tinubu as a man with a large heart that easily forgives. Here is a man who is always respected because he is a promise keeper, a bridge builder, a lover of Nigeria, and of course these are the characteristics and virtues he exhibited which made Nigerians to support him on his ambition to be the President of Nigeria.”
“He laid the template for modern Lagos and he created agencies such as LASTMA, LAWMA, Office of Public Defender and so many others. He had been able to build several leaders that have taken important positions in the country. On this note, I wish him long life, sound health, wisdom, knowledge and understanding to stir the affairs of Nigeria as number 1 citizen as permitted by our constitution. Happy birthday to you sir. Congratulations.” Arisekola stated.
