President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has extended warm felicitations to prominent Lagos politician and former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, on his 65th birthday, praising his steadfast service to Lagos State and Nigeria.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, on Monday, Tinubu described Senator Obanikoro as an influential leader within the Lagos political landscape and a dependable stakeholder in the All Progressives Congress (APC). “Senator Obanikoro’s significant contributions to Lagos State, particularly during his tenure as Chairman of the Lagos Island Local Government and as Commissioner for Home Affairs and Culture under my administration as governor, remain worthy of commendation,” the President said.
Currently an apex leader in the Lagos APC and a member of the influential Governance Advisory Council (GAC), Obanikoro, fondly known as “Koro,” was celebrated by the President for his “commitment to Lagos development and his pivotal role within the state APC.”
