Governor Sanwo-Olu is Filled with Gratitude as He Turns 61

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu is celebrating his 61st birthday today. In a post to mark his special day, the governor thanked God for good health, family and life.

He wrote,

‘Today, as I celebrate my 61st birthday, my heart is incredibly full.

For eight of these celebrations, I have had the rare privilege of serving as your Governor. It has been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve this extraordinary state and its people. The journey has been demanding, humbling and deeply rewarding.

Leading a state as dynamic and energetic as Lagos is no small task. It has taught me more about resilience and patience than any other chapter in my life.

I am filled with gratitude today, gratitude for life, for family, for health and for the enduring trust of Lagosians. Public service has its challenging days but the privilege of building a greater Lagos makes every single moment worth it.

We have come a long way together yet the work never stops. As I celebrate today, my commitment to you remains as strong as ever. There is still more to do, more to build and more progress to achieve for everyone who calls this great state home.’

Thank you, Lagosians, for walking this path with me.
