President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the minister of interior, Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola, on his 66th birthday, May 25, 2023, sharing the joy with family, friends, and political associates of the former governor of Osun State, whose contributions to the nation’s growth and stability continue to inspire.
Buhari in a statement by his media aide, Femi Adesina extoled the former governor, who played an active role in the Action Congress of Nigeria, and now All Progressives Congress, for the purposefulness and drive he brings to every position of leadership, with a background of grassroots mobilization, and lucid ideas that earned him massive following in the South-West State during his two-term tenure.
The president appreciated the minister for the leadership strides in Osun State and Ministry of Interior, acknowledging the reforms in the internal security structures and institutions, which significantly strengthened the overall architecture, by enabling a synergy with the Armed Forces and better control in managing local intelligence.
As the former governor marks another birthday, President Buhari believes his experience will always be relevant.
The president prayed for the well-being of Aregbesola and his family.
