It’s been a busy day in the constituency, but I must take a moment to celebrate a dear friend and partner in advancing our legislative work before the day runs out.

Happy birthday to a visionary leader, passionate social innovator, and vital voice for inclusion. Your unwavering commitment to advancing women’s representation in African politics is truly inspiring. As Founder/CEO of ElectHER, you’ve been a powerful force amplifying women’s voices and driving their participation in democracy.

Your invaluable support and collaboration on the Independent Candidacy Bill have been instrumental. Together, we are making strides toward democratising politics and bridging inequality in Nigeria. Your passion, vision, and tireless efforts to address the barriers for underserved groups and foster inclusion are a beacon of hope.

I pray for renewed strength, abundant success, and the grace to keep realising your bold vision.

Happy Birthday, Ibijoke Faborode!

Rep. Akin Rotimi, Jr.
