Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has felicitated with his wife, Dr Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, on her 58th birthday.
The Governor described the Chairman of the Committee of Wives of Lagos State Officials (COWLSO), who turned 58 yesterday, January 8, as a reliable and dependable partner in the Greater Lagos development agenda.
He said Dr. Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, a medical doctor, is a committed prayer warrior, a caring, loving, devoted wife and mother, a strong pillar, and a trusted partner of many decades.
Governor Sanwo-Olu, in a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Gboyega Akosile, on Tuesday, described his wife as a compassionate woman who has touched many lives, first as a medical practitioner and now as First Lady of Lagos State.
Sanwo-Olu said his wife, as a courageous, kind-hearted, and strong pillar of support, has contributed positively to delivering democracy’s dividends to millions of Lagos residents through his administration’s THEMES+ development agenda.
“My jewel of inestimable values has been a major pillar of my success, standing by me throughout the journey for several decades. We’ve sojourned together in the turbulent public space and standing side by side, working for the good people of Lagos State.”
“Ibijoke is worth celebrating for being a God-fearing and kind-hearted woman, a good companion, a caring and loving wife and mother. She is a passionate Christian, a prayer warrior, and a lover of children.
“My dear wife of almost three decades has complemented the roles God has given us now with all sense of dignity, dedication, and hard work. Through her pet projects and people-oriented programmes sponsored by her office and COWLSO, she has played critical roles in ensuring that good governance and dividends of democracy are delivered to Lagos residents, particularly women and children.
“On behalf of my children, family, the government, and the entire people of Lagos State, I celebrate my trusted and reliable partner and lifetime partner, Dr Claudiana Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, on her 58th birthday.’’
