The Kosofe Post and its management, alongside friends, family, associates, public servants, and partners, have united in felicitating with Tunde Jakande, CEO of LGNA International, on the occasion of his birthday.
In a congratulatory message signed by Bilesanmi Abayomi, the Publisher of The Kosofe Post, the celebrant was commended for his creative and innovative approach in promoting and strengthening public administration at the local and state government levels through value-added seminars, workshops, and symposiums, both locally and internationally.
Notably, Jakande has pioneered the ongoing All Public Primary Schools Debate Competition in Lagos, aiming to enhance the quality of education. This groundbreaking initiative not only enables Nigerian children to compete with their global counterparts but also grants the winners an opportunity to embark on a five-day tour of the Republic of Ireland in August this year. This gesture demonstrates Jakande’s dedication to the well-being of Nigerian children and the aspirations of future generations.
“He understood the power of education as the most potent weapon that can break the vicious cycle of poverty. He deployed it innovatively through a series of LDV programs for teenagers,” remarked Abayomi.
Today, Tunde Jakande is celebrated as a great man, highly resourceful, visionary, selfless leader, rare gem, quintessential figure, and a proud Lagosian striving for a modern Lagos.
“As you deservedly celebrate this special occasion, it is my prayer that Almighty God, who has richly prospered you and ordered your every step, will continue to bless you with good health, a sound mind, and fulfillment in the many more years of worthy service to humanity,” Abayomi expressed.
