Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi has congratulated a former member of the Senate (Ekiti Central) Senator Babafemi Ojudu on his 60th birthday.
Ojudu who is the special adviser to the president on political matters turns 60 on Saturday.
In a congratulatory message signed by his chief press secretary Yinka Oyebode in Ado-Ekiti on Saturday, Fayemi described Ojudu as an illustrious son of the land of honour, a distinguished journalist and activist who deployed his pen as a major weapon in the fight against military tyranny and enthronement of democratic rule in the country.
“On behalf of my family, the Government and good people of Ekiti State, I rejoice with my dear brother, Senator Babafemi Ojudu, on his diamond jubilee celebration.
“It’s been sixty amazing years. We thank God for the blessings He has bestowed on you these past years and we pray He continues to bless and sustain you with good health, wisdom and grace to continue to make meaningful contributions to our dear state and country” the governor said.
