Tinubu, a fighter for just society, says Sanwo-Olu’s aide, Amodu

Senior Special Assistant to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Housing, Abdul Hakeem Ejalonibu Amodu has eulogised President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his 71st birthday, saying he has demonstrated democratic credentials over years that needs to be celebrated by well-meaning Nigerians.

He said the President-elect is a dogged and determined fighter for a just society, describing the former Lagos governor as “a man of the people.”

Amodu expressed delight that Tinubu has finally fulfilled his ambition of becoming Nigeria’s president, saying his victory at the presidential and National Assembly elections was well-deserved and come at the period of his birthday.

Tinubu’s emergence as President, he noted, was against all odds, noting that God indeed favoured and granted him victory.

Amodu said: “We are in Tinubu’s school of politics and mentoring; I am not surprised that he remained focused and unwavering throughout the presidential contest. I celebrate our President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his 71st birthday.

“Tinubu has proved over the years to be an uncommon democrat who works assiduously for Nigeria to be great. We thank God for his life, and pray that He continues to grant him good health to achieve his desire for a Greater Nigeria.”

According to Amodu, the story of Tinubu is one that every Nigerian, young and old, should study carefully and learn from.

“Here is a man that worked against all odds to emerge as the Presidential candidate of the APC. Even more daunting was his emergence as President-elect. Trust Asiwaju, he weathered the storm and scaled through all the hurdles to emerge victorious and we are certain, he will surely deliver,” he added.
