Tinubu Hails Senate President Akpabio At 61

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has rejoiced with President of the 10th Nigerian Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, as he marks his 61st birthday on December 9, 2023.

Celebrating the political leader whose antecedents and achievements continue to attract recognition at home and abroad, the President, according to a release issued on Friday by his Media Adviser, Ajuri Ngelale,

affirmed the outstanding leadership qualities of the former Governor of Akwa Ibom State and ex-Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, who became a Governor at 45, after serving as a Commissioner in three different ministries. 

President Tinubu appreciated the loyalty, dedication, and commitment the Senate President has demonstrated over time, with measurable and lasting legacies to show for his time in various offices, most significantly exemplified by the uncommon transformation of Akwa Ibom into one of the most vibrant and frontline states in the country.

The President wished the Chairman of the National Assembly, whose service to the nation continues to inspire patriotism, many happy returns. 

He prayed that God Almighty will continue to bless Senator Akpabio and his family.
