Gov. Sanwo-Olu celebrates ‘courageous’ Fayose at 65
Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has congratulated former Ekiti governor, Ayo Fayose, on his 65th birthday, describing him as a courageous and visionary leader committed to the welfare of his people.
Mr Sanwo-Olu, in a statement on Saturday by his special adviser on media and publicity, Gboyega Akosile, said Mr Fayose remained a bold, devoted, and passionate advocate of good governance, who left notable footprints in his two-term stewardship in Ekiti.
“On behalf of my wife, Ibijoke, my family, as well as the government and people of Lagos state, I congratulate Fayose on his 65th birthday,” he said.
Mr Sanwo-Olu described the celebrant as a courageous and experienced politician, who commanded respect not only in Ekiti, where he served two different tenures but also across the South-West and the entire country.
“On this occasion of his 65th birthday, I wish ex-governor Ayodele Fayose sound health, long life and renewed strength as he continues to render service to humanity, Ekiti and Nigeria.”
