President Tinubu saluted the former Head of State on this special occasion, noting his endeavours towards the development of the nation, especially in infrastructure and otherwise, notably the completion of the Third Mainland Bridge which at the time was the longest bridge in Africa.
The President acknowledged the role of General Babangida in the sculpting of modern Nigeria, and commended him for his services to the nation.
President Tinubu wished the former Head of State many more years in good health.
