You Are An Active Player In Nigeria’s Democracy, Tinubu Celebrates Atiku At 78

President Bola Tinubu has celebrated former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on his 78th birthday.

President spokesman Sunday Dare in a statement said Atiku has been an active player in Nigeria’s democratic journey.

“President Bola Tinubu extends his best wishes to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on the occasion of his 78th birthday,” Dare’s statement read.

“The former Vice President and PDP presidential candidate in the 2023 presidential election has been an active player in Nigeria’s democratic process since the return to civilian rule in 1999.”

Dare said Tinubu “recalls many special moments shared with Wazirin Adamawa as founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), united in the mission to build a better future for Nigerians, as well as their engagement as political opponents in the last presidential election.

“President Tinubu recognises Atiku’s commitment to public service and philanthropy and prays Almighty Allah to continue to grant him health and happiness in the years ahead.”
