President Bola Tinubu has sent his best wishes to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on his 78th birthday, acknowledging their shared history and contributions to Nigeria’s democracy.
In a statement issued by his media aide, Sunday Dare, the President praised Atiku’s long-standing role in the nation’s political landscape since the return to civilian rule in 1999.
Tinubu also recalled their collaboration as founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and their political rivalry during the 2023 presidential election.
Despite ongoing political differences, President Tinubu expressed respect for Atiku’s commitment to public service and philanthropy, wishing him continued health and happiness.
“The President recalls many special moments shared with Wazirin Adamawa as founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), united in the mission to build a better future for Nigerians, as well as their engagement as political opponents in the last presidential election.”
“President Tinubu recognises Atiku’s commitment to public service and philanthropy, and prays Almighty Allah to continue to grant him health and happiness in the years ahead,” the statement read.
