Buhari, Tinubu Celebrate Osinbajo At 66
President Muhammadu Buhari rejoices with Vice President Oluyemi Oluleke Osinbajo, on the occasion of his 66th birthday, March 8, 2023.
The President equally felicitates with the entire Osinbajo family, wishing them many happy returns, as their son, husband and father turns another year, in good health and sound mind.
President Buhari lauds the sterling service the celebrant has provided to the country, as an academic, Attorney-General of Lagos State (1997-2007), and Vice President (2015 till date).
He applauds the deft way Osinbajo, a pastor with the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has combined scholarship with governance, and pastoral work, commending such dedication to the younger generation whom the Number 2 man serves as a torchbearer to.
President Buhari wishes the Vice President and his family joyful celebration, and greater grace ahead.
In the same vain, the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has congratulated the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, as he turned 66 on Wednesday.
Tinubu’s congratulatory message is coming one week after the vice president saluted him for emerging as the winner of Feruary 25 presidential election.
Osinbajo had described the president-elect as a bridge builder whose immediate assignment is to reach out to disaffected sections of the electorate and to meet the expectations of the youth.
But on Wednesday, it was the turn of the former governor of Lagos State to reciprocate the gesture.
In a statement released by his media officer, Tunde Rahman, the president-elect applauded his former protégé’s administrative skills and professional accomplishments as an academic and erudite lawyer, which have seen him serve successfully as Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice during his administration as Lagos governor.
He said, “I rejoice and celebrate with our Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, on attainment of 66 today. Professor Osinbajo has been a remarkable intellectual in public service since he served with me in Lagos as Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice. He contributed immensely to the success of our administration and led our justice sector reforms.
“As the Vice President of our country, Professor Osinbajo has partnered very well with our leader, President Muhammadu Buhari, to deliver on the progressive programmes of our party to make life better for Nigerians especially in areas of massive infrastructural development and life-changing Social Investment Programmes.
