The National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and former President of the Senate, Senator David Mark, has warmly felicitated with former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, on the occasion of his 89th birthday.
Senator Mark described the former Nigerian leader as a statesman of remarkable courage, discipline and enduring commitment to the unity, stability and progress of Nigeria.
In a goodwill message issued on Thursday, Senator Mark noted that Chief Obasanjo’s decades of service to the nation, both in military and civilian leadership have left an indelible mark on Nigeria’s political history and democratic development.
“Chief Olusegun Obasanjo remains one of the most prominent figures in Nigeria’s national journey. His dedication to nation-building, democratic governance and the pursuit of peace and stability in Africa continues to inspire generations of leaders,” Senator Mark stated.
He added that the elder statesman’s wealth of experience, forthright counsel and consistent advocacy for good governance have continued to shape national discourse and strengthen democratic institutions.
Senator Mark prayed for God’s continued grace, good health and wisdom for the former President, noting that Nigeria and the African continent still benefit greatly from his leadership experience and statesmanship.
“On behalf of the leadership and members of the African Democratic Congress, I congratulate Chief Olusegun Obasanjo on this remarkable milestone and wish him many more years of sound health, strength and service to humanity,” he said.
