Sanwo-Olu, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Gboyega Akosile on Sunday, said that Tinubu remained a visionary leader and rare mentor with exceptional abilities in various areas of human endeavours.

He said that Tinubu left with impeccable records in the state after setting the right template for economic growth and political stability.

According to him, the national leader of APC is a political pathfinder, nationalist and detribalised Nigerian who has contributed, in no small measure, to the socio-political and economic growth of the state and Nigeria as a whole.

“As you march on to a higher pedestal in life, may the Almighty go with you every step of the way and may you accomplish more in the service of our dear country and humanity,” he said.
