At 53: Keyamo fought for democracy, good governance in Nigeria — Tinubu

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, says the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, fought for democracy and good governance in Nigeria.

Tinubu said Keyamo has been using the instrumentality of the law to fight against injustice and oppression, adding that the life of the minister has been hallmarked by service to Nigeria and the citizens.

The APC presidential flag-bearer said this via a congratulatory letter addressed to Keyamo in commemoration of the latter’s 53rd birthday on Friday.

Tinubu while congratulating Keyamo, who is also the spokesperson of the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, thanked the minister for his “good work” as the spokesperson of his campaign.

He stated: “By way of this letter, please accept my heartfelt congratulations on your attainment of 53.

“Your life has been hallmarked by service to your people and country.

“You have fought for democracy and good governance. And using the instrumentality of the law, you have also fought against injustice and oppression.

“As a member of our progressive front, you have distinguished yourself. I must also use this opportunity to thank you for your invaluable work in our ongoing campaign to rekindle the hope of our people in a better, stronger, more secure and prosperous Nigeria.

“My prayer is that God Almighty grant you many more years in good health and imbue you with his protection and grace to continue to impact our people and country as profoundly as you do. Please rest assured of my highest regards always,” Tinubu said.
