President Bola Tinubu has rejoiced with ace broadcaster and Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, who clocks 62 on 11 October and commended her passion for building a better Nigeria through her various public roles.

The President, according to a release issued on Thursday by his Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, recalled Mrs Dabiri-Erewa’s illustrious career in public service, which first brought her to national prominence during her active days as a broadcaster with NTA.
She carved a niche as an authority on covering human-interest stories and skillfully anchoring the weekly NTA Newsline programme with flair, empathy, insight, and credibility.

President Tinubu noted that millions of Nigerians who watched her in this role saw her as a household name while her contributions to the nation, particularly in her efforts to bridge the gap between Nigeria and its diaspora, have extended far beyond the newsroom, making us all proud and appreciative of her work.

The President commended Dabiri-Erewa for her exemplary service in various capacities, including as a Member of the House of Representatives, Chairman of the House Committee on Diaspora Affairs, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, and as the pioneer Chairman/CEO of NiDCOM.

President Tinubu lauded her tireless efforts to ensure that the rights of Nigerian migrants are respected and also commended her work in facilitating investment and business opportunities between Nigeria and the Diaspora.

He affirmed that the former parliamentarian has proven to be a role model for women in politics. Her relentless dedication, optimism, courage, and commitment to excellence inspire many Nigerian women to take on leadership roles in the political arena.
President Tinubu prayed that Almighty Allah will grant her many years of good health and service to the nation.
