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.
