President Muhammadu Buhari has saluted the former Governor of Osun State, Chief Bisi Akande, the first National Chairman of the governing All Progressives Congress, APC, on his 84th birthday, describing him as a true statesman and a man of the masses.
In the message to commemorate the occasion, the President paid homage to the sacrifices of one of the champions of the nation’s democratic struggle, a man he said rose from humble beginnings to occupy the party’s highest constitutional position through hard work and discipline.
President Buhari said that Chief Akande will continue “to bask in the sun as a true statesman and a symbol of sacrifice, bravery and moral integrity.”
He wished him many more years of service to the Party and the nation.
