President Bola Tinubu rejoiced with the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, on Tuesday on his 63rd birthday.
Tinubu penned Akpabio a warm birthday tribute where he described the senate president “a patriot and a dedicated servant of the people who has been unwavering in his commitment to building a better nation.”
He said, “I join family, friends, associates, and members of the National Assembly to celebrate him and his decades of exceptional leadership.
“As the uncommon governor of Akwa Ibom State, as his people fondly called him, he led a remarkable transformation of the state. He made Akwa Ibom a top competitor in the national economy, providing infrastructure and building one of the most iconic stadia in the country, which remains one of our best today.
“From the government house of Akwa Ibom, he was elected to the Senate. As a Minister of the Niger-Delta, Senator Akpabio made the development of the region a priority.
