In conclusion, Senator Akintunde extended his warm wishes to all Nigerians on this special occasion:
“I congratulate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, leaders across all levels of government, and every citizen of our great nation as we celebrate another milestone in our democratic journey. May the future bring peace, progress, and renewed hope for all.”
