“I salute our national leader, my leader, my mentor and my teacher whose brand of classical politics and governance makes the people the ultimate beneficiaries of every political and governance decision.
“I pay glowing tribute to you for being an outstanding mentor and model to the emerging leaders of Nigeria; a lesson in patriotism, tenacity, and service; a phenomenal leader to our great party, the All Progressives Congress; a proud and illustrious Omoluabi of no mean stature; and a beacon of hope to our teeming youths and leaders of tomorrow.
“On behalf of my family, government and good people of Osun, I say a happy birthday to my leader, our leader, my mentor and teacher in progressive politics and governance.
“Congratulations on your new age, Sir.
