The organisation congratulated Senator Tinubu and joined Nigerians and well-wishers around the world in marking the occasion.

It commended the First Lady for what it described as her sustained advocacy and interventions in support of young people and women, saying her initiatives had helped create opportunities and inspire Nigerians to pursue their aspirations.

He described Tinubu as a politician who had distinguished herself through her legislative experience and commitment to issues affecting women, children and vulnerable groups.

Okpebholo said: “Senator Remi Tinubu is that rare political figure—someone who has earned her place not through proximity to power, but through the sheer force of her convictions and the quality of her work.”

He noted that her years in the Senate provided a platform for her to contribute to debates and legislative initiatives on social policy, education, women’s economic participation and financial inclusion.

“Senator Remi Tinubu is not merely a supporter of Mr President’s agenda—she is an active participant in its advancement,” he said.

The governor also highlighted the First Lady’s public engagements in areas including women’s welfare, youth development and community support, saying her work had provided an example for younger Nigerians interested in leadership and public service.
