The Speaker of the House of Representatives Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, has congratulated the Vice President, His Excellency, Senator Kashim Shettima, GCON, as he clocks 59 today, saying it is a life worth celebrating.
Speaker Abbas described VP Shettima as a man of high intellect and a loyal, trusted, and dependable ally of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.
In a congratulatory message issued through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Musa Abdullahi Krishi, the Speaker noted that Senator Shettima is an experienced and excellent politician and public administrator.
Speaker Abbas recalled how the vice president excelled in the private sector as a banker and during his time as governor of Borno State. He said VP Shettima’s legislative experience as a member of the 9th Senate before becoming the vice president has added immense value to the Tinubu administration.
The Speaker said Senator Shettima, as the vice president, has continued to foster unity among ethno-religious divides, lead economic reforms, and remain a strong pillar in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
While wishing VP Shettima more years on earth, the Speaker prayed to Allah (SWT) to continue to guide and protect him as he serves Nigeria with passion and zeal.
