President Bola Tinubu congratulates the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Felix Morka, on his 60th birthday.

“The President joins the leadership and members of the APC, as well as Morka’s family, friends, and associates, in celebrating the milestone birthday of a committed party stalwart and strategic thinker. President Tinubu acknowledges Mr Morka’s crucial contribution to advancing the APC’s communication and publicity efforts and profoundly values his unwavering dedication,” the President’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, said in a statement.

Mr Tinubu commended Mr Morka for articulating and effectively communicating the party’s vision, policies, and achievements.

He noted that his intellectual acumen and steadfast commitment had significantly bolstered the APC’s public engagement.
