In a statement by his media team, Fayemi praised the president for his long-standing commitment to progressive ideals, the sacrifices he has made to deepen Nigeria’s democracy, and his commitment to making Nigeria a more prosperous and united country.

“President Tinubu’s remarkable journey in service to our country exemplifies dedication, fortitude, and commitment. His unwavering leadership has helped shape our country’s political landscape and advance the cause of democracy,’’ he stated. 

Fayemi acknowledged that the current challenges are daunting, but he expressed confidence in the President’s ability to lead Nigeria out of the woods.
