President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on his 60th birthday, praising his commitment to the development of Lagos.

In a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, on Wednesday, Tinubu described Sanwo-Olu as a dedicated public servant who has stayed true to the vision of transforming Lagos.

“Your execution of this vision is exemplified by landmark achievements, including completing the Blue and Red Rail lines and the ongoing preparations for the Purple Line, which will serve the vital Lekki corridor.

“I urge you to sustain this trajectory by prioritising impactful projects for Lagosians, notably the long-awaited Fourth Mainland Bridge and the Freedom Way to Victoria Garden City (VGC) Road,” Tinubu said.

The President also wished the governor continued good health and many more years of service to Lagos and Nigeria.

The statement highlighted that Sanwo-Olu began his political career under Tinubu’s mentorship and noted that he served in various roles in Lagos State, including as Commissioner in multiple ministries and as Managing Director of the Lagos State Property Development Corporation.
