The House of Representatives extends heartfelt congratulations to His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, on the occasion of his 73rd birthday.
President Tinubu’s life has been a testament to unwavering dedication to democracy, good governance, and national development. As a visionary leader and statesman, he has played a defining role in shaping Nigeria’s democratic evolution, strengthening institutions, and championing progressive policies that foster economic growth and social transformation.
Since assuming office, President Tinubu has undertaken bold and necessary reforms aimed at repositioning Nigeria for sustainable development, tackling long-standing economic and security challenges, and renewing the hope of Nigerians. He has also demonstrated steadfast commitment to lifting Nigeria’s name beyond its shores, actively engaging in diplomatic and economic missions while providing critical leadership across West Africa as Chairman of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
His steadfast commitment to nation-building and courageous leadership in difficult times continue to inspire both present and future generations.
The Speaker, Rt. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, PhD., GCON, paid glowing tribute to the President, emphasising his resilience and transformative leadership:
“The sacrifices made and the tough choices taken are now showing tangible benefits. These benefits are restoring confidence in our economy, security, and the future of our nation. In the not-so-distant future, Nigerians will smile and applaud the Tinubu administration for standing firm for the country to be afloat.”
Speaker Abbas further noted that under President Tinubu’s stewardship, Nigeria’s economy has been rejuvenated, with recent data from the National Bureau of Statistics indicating a GDP growth of 3.2% in the last quarter of 2024, up from 2.5% in the preceding period. These strides reflect the administration’s commitment to economic recovery and national prosperity.
On this special occasion, the House of Representatives joins the First Family, the government, and the entire nation in celebrating President Tinubu’s lifelong service, enduring legacy, and invaluable contributions to the progress of Nigeria.
We pray for continued wisdom, strength, and good health for Mr. President as he leads the nation with vision, courage, and dedication toward a more prosperous, secure, and united Nigeria.
Happy 73rd Birthday, Mr. President!
