President Bola Tinubu has rejoiced with Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State on his 60th birthday today.
Tinubu commendeds Aiyedatiwa for his unwavering dedication and political consistency, beginning from his membership of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in 2011.
“His steadfastness throughout the party’s metamorphosis and final transition to the All Progressives Congress (APC) exemplifies his loyalty, dedication and commitment,” he said in a statement by his spokesman, Bayo Onanuga.
Aiyedatiwa became deputy governor of Ondo State in 2021. He became the acting governor and was ultimately sworn in as governor in 2023, succeeding Rotimi Akeredolu.
“Aiyedatiwa’s impressive political trajectory is a testament to the potential and possibilities in Nigerian politics,” Tinubu said.
He further recognised the governor’s electoral victory in 2024, which has allowed him to continue raising standards in key areas such as health and education, directly improving the lives of citizens.
Tinubu appreciated Governor Aiyedatiwa’s contributions as a commissioner representing Ondo State at the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), saying his deep understanding of grassroots development had played a crucial role in strengthening the institution to better serve its purpose.
