\u201cWe, as members of APC South Africa<\/a> Chapter and also active member of APC Diaspora Leaders Forum associate with this patriotic Nigerian and great man.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish him more years in excellent health to steer affairs of our great nation with his Principal, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour next birthday will be as Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; we will all be alive to celebrate with you in Aguda House,\u201d Babarinde said.<\/p>\n

He noted that Shettima at 25, had completed his Masters at University of Ibadan in same Agricultural Economics course like his undergraduate degree in University of Maiduguri.<\/p>\n

Babarinde recalled that Shettima lectured for two years before becoming a banker and at the age of 41 exited banking as a top executive in Zenith Bank and was appointed as Commissioner for Finance in Borno at same age.<\/p>\n

He noted that Shettima was elected as governor of Borno at 45 and Senator at 53, while becoming APC vice-presidential candidate at 56.<\/p>\n

\u201cBirthdays are special dates set aside to celebrate life and the milestones achieved, it is also necessary to celebrate to remind ourselves that as we are advance in life.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe should not waste time to give our best to the society and avoid procrastination on any good deed on our minds,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He prayed for God to continue to bless and grant the Shettima long life and wisdom to serve Nigeria better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
