President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated Vice-President Kashim Shettima on his 57th birthday.
In a statement by Ajuri Ngelale, his special adviser on media and publicity, Tinubu thanked God for the sustained grace of wisdom, character, compassion, and bold leadership demonstrated by Shettima.
“President Tinubu extols Senator Shettima for his undying loyalty to the nation, and his steadfast resolve to improve society throughout an illustrious career, which included service in education as a lecturer at the University of Maiduguri, prior to moving into, and rising meteorically through the banking industry, before accepting to serve Borno State as a Commissioner in five different ministries,” the statement reads.
“The President extols the Vice President for his unusual courage in presiding over Borno State for eight years, during which a deadly insurgency riddled large areas of the North East.”
“This remarkable public servant defied all odds in the region with a ferociously intellectual mind and an innovative doggedness to solve dynamic problems with dynamic solutions, building high quality leaders and institutions for the sustainably developing future of Borno State.”
The president prayed for the continued wellbeing of Shettima and his family.
