Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has joined the host of other political bigwigs in Nigeria to felicitate with his former principal, Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, on his 88th birthday.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, via his 𝕏 handle, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) described Obasanjo as a rare gem and a precious gift to the country.
Atiku acknowledged that it was an honour for him to have served with Obasanjo in advancing a pan-Nigerian agenda that gives everyone, irrespective of where they came from, the opportunity to thrive for the greater good of the people and the country at large.
