Tinubu Eulogises Oba Saheed Elegushi At 50
President Bola Tinubu warmly congratulates His Royal Majesty, Oba Alayeluwa Saheed Ademola Elegushi, Kusenla III, and eulogises his virtues on his 50th birthday.
The President rejoices with the 21st Elegushi of the Ikate-Elegushi Kingdom, Council members, Lagos State Traditional Council, and sons and daughters of the highly revered kingdom.
President Tinubu notes the monarch’s commitment to empowering Ikate-Elegushi indigenes through interventions in education, health, and entrepreneurship since ascending the throne of his forebears 16 years ago.
“Oba Elegushi has demonstrated the vision, grace, wisdom and courage in keeping a balance between tradition and modernity by adopting technology and global best practices in developmental strides, particularly in agriculture and skills acquisition in his domain.
“I am not surprised about your leadership and the gains your reign has produced for the people because, as my Special Assistant, 2003-2007, and Senior Special Assistant, 2007-2010, during my tenure as Governor of Lagos State, you always evinced a deep sense of empathy and compassion for people.
“I pray that God Almighty will grant you longer life, good health and wisdom to serve your people, Lagos State and Nigeria.”
