Sanwo-Olu hails Gbajabiamila on 61st birthday

Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has felicitated with Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, the chief of staff to President Bola Tinubu, on the occasion of his 61st birthday.

In a statement on Sunday, Sanwo-Olu described Gbajabiamila as a worthy ambassador of Lagos state, a patriot, a respected parliamentarian, and a committed public officer.

The governor whose birthday coincides with that of Gbajabiamila, said the former speaker was a good ambassador of Surulere federal constituency and Lagos state.

He said Gbajabiamila’s remarkable contributions to the stability of the house of representatives during his tenure are a testament to his visionary leadership and pragmatic approach to politics and governance.

“On behalf of my family, the government, and good people of Lagos state, I celebrate my dear brother, birthday mate and fellow Surulere boy, Gbajabiamila.

“Gbajabiamila is exemplary; a progressive and brilliant legislator who has made history as the first lawmaker to serve as minority and majority leader in the green chambers before being elected as speaker of the house of representatives in the Ninth national assembly.

“Since he assumed office as chief of staff to Tinubu, Gbajabiamila has displayed commitment, passion, and visionary leadership in assisting the president to steer the ship of Nigeria in the right direction, which is evident in the daily wins of Mr President’s four weeks in office.

”As our dear chief of staff to the president celebrates his 61st birthday, I pray that God will continue to preserve and grant him good health and sound mind to enable him to render more service to Nigerians, the good people of Lagos, and humanity as a whole,” the statement reads.
