President Bola Tinubu has extended warm wishes to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on his 78th birthday, commending his contributions to Nigeria’s democratic journey and public service.

In a statement, Tinubu reflected on shared moments with Atiku as founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and their more recent engagement as political opponents during the 2023 presidential election. The President acknowledged Atiku’s longstanding commitment to public service and philanthropy.

Tinubu prayed for Almighty Allah to bless the Wazirin Adamawa with good health and happiness, celebrating his enduring role in Nigeria’s political and democratic development since 1999.
