The Northern Governors Forum has lauded the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF)’s chairman Kayode Fayemi for his passion for peace and unity.

This is contained in a congratulatory message to Mr Fayemi as he clocked 57 by the northern governors’ chairman, Simon Lalong.

The governors also commended Mr Fayemi’s commitment to finding solutions to the nation’s security challenges and his support in assisting the northern region and other parts of the country in handling problems impeding peace and progress.

The forum acknowledged the Ekiti governor’s contributions and passion in shoring up the development of all parts of the country, particularly through harnessing the potentials of the various regional blocks.

They noted that Mr Fayemi’s engagement as NGF chairman with the private sector, international organisations and the federal government led to some breakthroughs that impacted the lives of Nigerians.

While wishing him many more years of peace, good health and happiness, the forum urged him to continue to do his best in promoting the ideals of good governance, the rule of law, and peaceful coexistence.
