The
All Progressives Congress, APC, has congratulated the Speaker of the
House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, on the occasion
of his 57th birthday, attesting to Gbajabiamila’s perceived
exemplary qualities as a cerebral lawmaker, detribalised Nigerian and
a loyal party man who has consistently defended internal democracy,
party loyalty, discipline and above all, national interest.
A
statement by the party Wednesday testified that Gbajabiamila’s
“pedigree and appeal was in full display during his recent
landslide speakership election victory which transcended party
affiliations.
The
support of the National Assembly remains critical to enable the
President Muhammadu Buhari-led APC administration deliver on our
Change Agenda and Next Level manifesto. As minority leader, majority
leader and now speaker of the 9th House of Representatives,
Gbajabiamila’s colleagues have found in him a consensus builder who
is committed to ensuring best legislative practice and cooperation
between the executive and legislative arms of government.
“Under
Gbajabiamila’s leadership, we are confident that the 9th House of
Representatives will support critical legislative intervention to
drive the developmental, social investments and empowerment
programmes for our people.
“We
join family, friends, associates and fellow legislators in praying
for a long, healthy life, and wisdom to lead the 9th House of
Representatives.”
The
party also celebrated the Lagos State Governor, H.E. Babajide
Sanwo-Olu as he marked his 54th birthday.
It
said: “Coming just less than a month after he assumed the mantle of
leadership, the party is delighted to celebrate the governor who has
within a very short time, left no one in any doubt of the positive
direction he plans to take Lagos in the next four years.
“The
APC while acknowledging the multifaceted challenges confronting Lagos
state, affirms the governor is ready to walk his talk against the
backdrop of his administration's pro-people actions and policies in
the last one month.
“Our
great party is confident that Lagosians would not have any cause to
regret voting this embodiment of hard work, commitment, loyalty and a
man of vision and ideas into office as their governor.
“We
wish the governor a very happy birthday and pray to God to imbue him
with wisdom and sound health to run the affairs of the state
successfully for the next four years.”
