President Bola Tinubu has joined Nigerians and well-wishers globally in celebrating the President of the National Trade Promotion Organisations of the Economic Community of West African States, Mr. Segun Awolowo, as he turns 60.
A statement issued on Tuesday by Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President (Media & Publicity), said the president shares in the immense joy of this important milestone with the scion of Chief Obafemi Awolowo’s family, while congratulating the former Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC) for sustaining the legacy of the family in public service.
The statement affirmed that President Tinubu recognizes the zeal, courage, and wisdom that Mr. Segun Awolowo has brought into the positions of leadership he has previously held, with an admirable profile of working with every President of Nigeria since 1999, while leaving behind his trademark works of excellence at every stage.
As Mr. Awolowo clocks 60 on Wednesday, President Tinubu expressed appreciation over the sacrifices of the legal practitioner, who he said accepted the call to serve the country at a young age, and continues to inspire younger generations to imbibe the virtues of excellence and patriotism in service.
He prayed for the well-being of Mr. Segun Awolowo and his family while wishing him many more years in good health and quality service delivery in his present and future endeavours.
