The President, according to a release issued on Friday by his Media Adviser, Ajuri Ngelale,
cherished Alake’s patriotism and unwavering dedication to service, as well as the close relationship they have shared over the span of four decades.
President Tinubu reflected on the long journey they have embarked upon together, from the Minister’s days as Editor of the National Concord to his tenure as the Commissioner for Information and Strategy in Lagos State during the President’s service as the Executive Governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007, all the way through to their most recent and extraordinary journey into the State House.
“Through it all, Dele has proven to be a partner and worthy brother,” the President declared.
The President affirmed that Alake possessed uncommon versatility and strength of character that leaves a lasting impression on everyone he encounters, imparting the true essence of loyalty, trust, respect, and empathy.
President Tinubu thanked the accomplished public servant for his loyalty over the years, both in times of triumph and in times of difficulty.
The President looked forward to many more years of great memories, successes, and continued camaraderie.
As the beloved celebrant embarks on a new chapter of service to our nation, President Tinubu joined family, friends and well-wishers at home and abroad in offering heartfelt prayers, seeking divine guidance and success for the Minister in his new assignment.
