On behalf of my family, my political associates, supporters, and the good people of Amuwo Odofin Constituency 2, I, Hon. Rauf Olawale Age-Sulaiman PhD, APC Candidate for the Lagos State House of Assembly, Amuwo Odofin Constituency 2, join Nigerians across the length and breadth of our great nation, as well as friends of Nigeria in the diaspora, to celebrate an exceptional woman of grace, courage, compassion, faith, and distinguished public service — Her Excellency, Distinguished Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, OON, First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, on the occasion of her 66th birthday.

Your Excellency, Happy 66th Birthday!

At 66, your life continues to exemplify the enduring power of purposeful service, unwavering faith, intellectual depth, compassion, and devotion to humanity. Your remarkable journey from the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the Office of the First Lady has been defined by dignity, resilience, responsibility, and an enduring commitment to improving the lives of Nigerians.

As First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, you have brought a distinctive sense of purpose and compassion to the office, deploying it as an avenue for humanitarian intervention, social empowerment, advocacy, and national development.

Through the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI), your humanitarian vision has translated into tangible interventions touching women, children, young people, students, the elderly, farmers, entrepreneurs, and other vulnerable members of society. Your commitment to empowering women, supporting education, strengthening healthcare interventions, promoting food security, and advancing the welfare of vulnerable Nigerians reflects a deep understanding of the responsibilities that come with public service.

We therefore celebrate you today for the following:

1. A Motherly Commitment to the Welfare of Nigerians

Your interventions through the Renewed Hope Initiative have provided meaningful platforms for empowerment and social intervention across different sectors of society.

From support for women farmers and market women to educational interventions, healthcare initiatives, assistance to vulnerable citizens, and programmes targeted at improving livelihoods, your humanitarian footprint continues to demonstrate that leadership is ultimately measured by the lives it touches.

You have consistently projected the message that every Nigerian deserves dignity, opportunity, and a fair chance to thrive.

2. A Distinguished Legislative Legacy

Before becoming First Lady, you distinguished yourself as a three-term Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, contributing to the legislative process and championing issues affecting women, children, families, education, and society at large.

Your years in the National Assembly remain an important chapter in Nigeria’s democratic journey and a source of inspiration to women who aspire to contribute meaningfully to public life.

You demonstrated that effective representation requires not only occupying public office, but also bringing intellect, compassion, courage, and a genuine understanding of the people into the discharge of responsibility.

3. A Partnership Built on Faith, Family and National Responsibility

Your partnership with His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has also reflected the importance of family, faith, sacrifice, and shared responsibility in public life.

As the President leads the nation through a period of significant economic and institutional transformation, your complementary role as wife, mother, counsellor, advocate, and First Lady has continued to command national attention.

Your example demonstrates that behind every demanding national responsibility is the need for strength of character, prayer, wisdom, and an unwavering commitment to family and country.

4. A Woman of Faith, Grace and Dignity

Beyond the titles and offices you have occupied, Your Excellency’s public life has been characterised by faith, humility, elegance, and compassion.

You have consistently demonstrated that influence can be exercised with dignity, that authority can coexist with humility, and that public service can be guided by genuine concern for humanity.

Your journey remains an inspiration to women and young people who aspire to make meaningful contributions to society.

5. An Enduring Inspiration to Nigerian Women

Your journey from educator to Senator and ultimately to First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria represents a significant testament to the capacity of Nigerian women to occupy spaces of influence and responsibility.

Your story continues to inspire women to pursue excellence, participate actively in governance, build stronger families, and contribute to national development.

On this special occasion of your 66th birthday, I pray that Almighty God will continue to preserve you, strengthen you, and grant you many more years of sound health, wisdom, grace, peace, and fulfilment.

May God continue to bless your home, strengthen your partnership with Mr. President, and grant you the wisdom and courage to continue serving humanity.

May the years ahead bring you greater joy, renewed strength, abundant grace, and even greater opportunities to touch lives and contribute to the progress of our beloved Nigeria.

Happy 66th Birthday, Your Excellency.

May your years ahead be filled with divine favour, good health, peace of mind, and enduring fulfilment.

Many happy returns, Your Excellency.
