NRC MD pour encomium on Nigeria’s President Tinubu at 73.

The Managing Director of the Nigerian Railway Corporation, Dr Kayode Opeifa, has congratulated President Bola Tinubu on his 73rd birthday, describing him as a rare gift to mankind.

He said at 73, President Tinubu deserves all the commendation from across all corners of Nigeria for his immeasurable contribution to politics, governance, economy and the development of Lagos State and Nigeria at large.

In a congratulatory message, Opeifa described President Tinubu as a quintessential politician and a democrat whose democratic credentials remain unassailable.

He said: “On behalf of my immediate family, I congratulate our leader and benefactor, President Bola Tinubu, on his 73rd birthday. 

“President Tinubu for the greater part of his adult life sold himself out completely in service to humanity, Lagos State and Nigeria in particular. He is passionate about the growth and development of the country. He is a democrat and an advocate of good governance, who always teams up with other pro-democracy groups and individuals for positive change and the development of Nigeria’s democracy.

“His fidelity as the father of modern Lagos is unassailable. His tenure as the first Governor in the present Fourth Republic changed the story of Lagos positively. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s financial engineering and shrewd economics, is not only felt in Lagos State, but presently reverberating across the country as the Renewed Hope Agenda of his administration is giving birth to changes across all sectors of the economy.
He said under the Tinubu administration, the Nigerian Railway Corporation is witnessing a new transformation in which the Corporation is railing with states of the federation to bring the rail dividends closer to Nigerians.

“President Tinubu is a detribalised Nigerian who accommodates every section of the country. In his less than two years as President, he has delivered dividends of democracy and good governance in every part of Nigeria through his Renewed Hope Agenda.

“Since assuming office, the President has demonstrated unparalleled patriotism, integrity, honesty, and courage in the task of nation building, steering the ship of Nigeria in the right direction. He has provided honest and transparent leadership in Nigeria by taking bold and audacious decisions and implementing the right policies to address the country’s economic challenges.

“As our leader turns 73, we pray that God will continue to give him strength, wisdom and good health to continue to serve and direct the affairs of our country towards political and economic prosperity”.
