Bola Tinubu, national leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), in a letter has congratulated Kayode Fayemi, governor of Ekiti state, on his emergence as chairman of Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF).
Okay Nigeria News understands that the letter was released to newsmen by the media office of the former governor of Lagos on Friday.
In the letter, Tinubu expressed confidence in Fayemi to deliver on the assignment given his credentials, competence, integrity and fine leadership ability.
He also advised Fayemi “to contribute positively to national development, advance the frontiers of important issues such as fiscal federalism and support President Muhammadu Buhari in the task of taking the country to the Next Level.”
The letter continued in parts:
“Your election is a mark of respect for you by your colleagues and confidence in your ability to lead them meritoriously for the next two years.
“Having known and related with you over the years, I’m certain that you will perform creditably well given your impeccable credentials, competence, integrity and fine leadership ability.
“Your experience as Governor of Ekiti State in the first term, Minister of Mines in Abuja and your remarkable comeback as Governor for a second term have all enriched you for this assignment.
“I hope and pray that you will build a team that will properly position the NGF to contribute positively to national development, advance the frontiers of important issues such as fiscal federalism and support President Muhammadu Buhari in the task of taking the country to the Next Level.”
