NORTHERN GOVERNORS GREET PRESIDENT OBASANJO AT 85
The Northern Governors Forum has felicitated with former President Olusegun Obasanjo on his 85th Birthday.
Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Plateau State Rt. Hon. Simon Bako Lalong in a message described President Obasanjo as a nationalist and passionate leader whose patriotism is paramount in all his engagements.
Lalong said at 85, President Obasanjo continues to offer his wise counsel to leaders at various levels as well as participate in national dialogue aimed at tackling insecurity, poverty, disease and intolerance.
He said the former President has never hidden his belief in the unity, oneness and indivisibilty of Nigeria and has thus continued to encourage the younger generation to be positive and shun all actions that will erode national unity, peace and development.
Governor Lalong said the Northern Governors Forum appreciate his fatherly counsel and personal interventions towards finding lasting solutions to insecurity in Nigeria, particularly in the Northern Region.
He wished him many more years of good health and God’s protection, urging him never to relent in lending his voice towards a greater Nigeria.
