The Speaker of the House of Representatives Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has congratulated the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, on his 68th birthday.
In a statement on Friday in Abuja, Gbajabiamila said Oshiomhole’s sterling leadership qualities as the APC National Chairman have contributed tremendously in stabilising the party since his coming on board in July, 2018.
The speaker said Oshiomhole had proven to be one committed Nigerian, who continues to work tirelessly in moving the country forward.
“On this day, I join millions of Nigerians, especially members of our party, the ruling APC in congratulating and celebrating our National Chairman on his 68th birthday.
“Right from his days as a labour leader to his period as an elected governor of Edo for eight years, Adams Oshiomhole has proven his mettle as a leader with an uncommon sense of patriotism.
“He has brought his experience of decades and political sagacity to bear in leading the APC to victory during the 2019 general elections. His firm commitment to party supremacy and discipline is a trait that many do not have,” he said.
On his part, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Rep. Ahmed Wase, described Oshiomhole as fearless and dogged leader who stands for justice, equity and fairness to all.
The deputy speaker acknowledged the contribution of the APC chairman who has devoted his entire life to serving Nigeria.
He said that Oshiomhole had come a long way in his contributions to the sustenance of democracy and development in the nation.
“As chairman of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), the youthful Oshiomhole showed his mettle and left no one in doubt that he was prepared for leadership.
“Our noble chairman, as you mark 68 years today, I pray that the Almighty Allah, will bless you with good health and grant you many more productive years on earth,” Wase prayed.
