President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila have felicitated with the National Leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who turns 68 on Sunday, 29th March, 2020.
Lawan said Asiwaju Tinubu, a former Senator and a two-term governor of Lagos State, is an inspirational political leader and champion of national unity and development.
“All through his political life, Asiwaju Tinubu has doggedly groomed leaders, set development templates and built bridges for national integration and cohesion, all of which he sees as necessary tools for robust development and great nationhood.
“Asiwaju Tinubu’s concept of leadership enables him to motivate associates and inspire in them confidence and loyalty. His imprints are indelible on politics and governance at the sub-national and national levels in Nigeria,” Lawan said.
Gbajabiamila:
In the same vein, the Speaker of the House of Representatives Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has paid glowing tributes to the national leader of the APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his 68th birthday.
In a birthday message he signed, the Speaker said Tinubu’s belief in democratic tenets is unparalleled, and his democratic credentials are unprecedented and unrivaled.
The Speaker added that the history of Nigeria’s current democratic experience will not be complete without the name of Asiwaju, the Jagaban of Borgu.
“The Asiwaju is someone that has become a household name not only in Nigeria, but in the entire African continent.
“Today, our current democracy, which started in 1999, enjoys stability due largely to the contributions of Asiwaju and others of like mind.
“I make bold to say that Tinubu’s style of politics will in years to come be a subject of intense research among political scholars. This is because of his uniqueness. There is hardly a politician that gets the kind of loyalty and support that he gets.
“Myself as a product of the Tinubu’s school of politics, I learn every day from the Jagaban, and I have no regrets whatsoever being one of his close political associates over the years. To me, he has been a worthy mentor all these years.”
