…Hails VP’s Leadership
Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has congratulated Vice President Kashim Shettima on his 60th birthday, describing him as a visionary, loyal and dedicated public servant committed to the progress of Nigeria.
Sanwo-Olu, in a statement issued on Tuesday by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Gboyega Akosile, commended the Vice President for his contributions to the development of Nigeria, particularly in the areas of politics and governance.
The governor also described Shettima as a reliable, competent and selfless leader who had distinguished himself in both the private and public sectors.
He further praised the Vice President for his loyalty and commitment to President Bola Tinubu and the realisation of the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
Sanwo-Olu said: “On behalf of my wife, Ibijoke, family, the government, and the entire people of Lagos State, as well as leaders and members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in our dear State, I congratulate Vice President Kashim Shettima on his 60th birthday.
“Vice President Kashim Shettima is a visionary and passionate leader who has distinguished himself in both private and public office. He had a successful career as a lecturer and banker for about two decades before entering public service.
“He served his State, Borno, diligently as Commissioner, Governor, and Senator representing Borno Central before he assumed office as Vice President of Nigeria on May 29, 2023.”
The governor said Shettima’s experience across the private and public sectors had positioned him to provide pragmatic leadership at both state and national levels.
According to him, the Vice President remains a committed and selfless public servant whose vision aligns with that of President Tinubu in the pursuit of economic stability, social development and political cohesion.
He added: “He has, over the years, demonstrated pragmatic leadership in various areas at both state and national levels, across private and public sectors.
“On this occasion of his 60th birthday, I wish Vice President Kashim Shettima good health and wisdom as he continues to serve our dear country, Nigeria.”
