Vice President Kashim Shettima has expressed deep appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other Nigerians for the outpouring of goodwill on his 59th birthday, describing the President’s message as a profound gesture of comradeship and visionary leadership.

In a statement on Tuesday titled “A Message of Gratitude,” the Vice President reflected on the cascade of tributes he received from across the country and beyond, singling out President Tinubu and First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, for their warmth and encouragement.

“Mr. President, your heartfelt message, steeped in warmth and comradeship, has touched me profoundly. This feeling, as you well know, is mutual. The bond we share, anchored in loyalty and service, is one I will never take for granted,” Shettima stated.

He praised Tinubu’s courage in steering the country through difficult reforms, noting that the President’s leadership has helped navigate Nigeria “through turbulent waters into a harbour of stability that promises abundance.”

“To serve alongside you, under your visionary and people-centred leadership, in shaping the destiny of our great nation through the Renewed Hope Agenda, is both an honour and a lifelong lesson in courage and statesmanship,” Shettima affirmed.

The Vice President also extended gratitude to state governors, federal lawmakers, cabinet members, traditional rulers, religious leaders, community figures, and Nigerians from all walks of life who sent birthday wishes, emphasizing that their solidarity was a reminder of the sacred responsibility of public service.

“As I meditate on these tokens of goodwill, I am renewed in purpose and fortified in spirit. I remain convinced, as does Mr. President, that Nigeria’s greatest days are ahead of us. With unity of will, clarity of vision, and fidelity to our shared aspirations, we shall overcome our trials and bequeath to coming generations a nation that is secure, prosperous, and just,” Shettima said.

The Vice President’s remarks highlight the strong bond between him and President Tinubu, as well as their shared commitment to delivering on the Renewed Hope Agenda for Nigeria.
