President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Nigeria’s former head of state, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, on his 83rd birthday.
In a statement issued by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Saturday, Tinubu noted Babangida’s endeavours toward the development of the nation, especially in infrastructure and other areas.
“The President acknowledges the role of General Babangida in the sculpting of modern Nigeria, and commends him for his services to the nation.
