Buhari congratulates the former Commissioner of Information in Kwara State on the milestone, preceded by years of hard work and focus that have seen his steady rise in journalism, with contributions to the development of the country, particularly in youth and community development.

President Buhari noted Raheem Adedoyin's interest in always projecting the strength of the country, and the continent, in representation on the Executive Board of the IPI, commending his sense of patriotism and commitment to nation building.

Buhari prays that the almighty God will grant  Adedoyin, fondly called Oloriewe, longer life, good health and strength.
