The All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Candidate in Oyo State, Sen. (Dr) Sharafadeen Alli, has congratulated Nigeria’s First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, on her 66th birthday.
Alli, in a congratulatory message on Monday, described the First Lady as a woman of uncommon grace, compassion, courage and commitment to national development.
The APC candidate said her years of public service had demonstrated that leadership was not merely about occupying positions, but using such positions to touch lives and promote the welfare of the vulnerable.
Alli particularly acknowledged the First Lady’s Renewed Hope Initiative, which the State House says had provided interventions in areas including education, healthcare and support for disadvantaged Nigerians.
“On behalf of my family, the people of Oyo State and the entire APC family in the state, I heartily congratulate our mother, leader and First Lady of Nigeria, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, on attaining the remarkable age of 66.
“Your life is a testament to the virtues of service, compassion, resilience and unwavering commitment to humanity.
“All Nigerians can see the passion with which you have championed initiatives aimed at improving the lives of women, children and other vulnerable members of society,” he said.
He said her advocacy for women and girls had continued to reinforce the importance of inclusive development, adding that her public service record as a former three-term senator remained significant.
“Your Excellency, your contributions to nation-building have transcended political, ethnic and religious boundaries.
“You have consistently demonstrated that compassion and service to humanity remain among the highest responsibilities of leadership,” Alli said.
Senator Alli also commended the First Lady for her support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and her role in strengthening the values of family, faith and service.
He prayed that Almighty God would grant her many more years in good health, wisdom, strength and fulfilment to continue serving Nigeria and humanity.
“May this new chapter bring you greater grace, renewed strength and abundant blessings.
“May God continue to strengthen you and grant you the wisdom and courage to remain a source of hope and inspiration to millions of Nigerians.
“Happy 66th birthday, Your Excellency. Nigeria is grateful for your service, compassion and dedication,” Alli said.
