President Bola Tinubu has celebrated his son, Seyi Tinubu, as he marks his 40th birthday, describing him as a focused, courageous, and humble man who has continued to make both his family and Nigeria proud.
In a personal birthday message released on Sunday, the President commended Seyi for his determination, leadership, and commitment to building and uplifting others.
“Today, as you turn forty, I thank Almighty God for your life and the man you have become. You have walked your path with focus, courage, and humility, and you have done so with a heart that seeks to build, serve, and uplift others,” Tinubu wrote.
The President said Seyi had always shown a natural drive to create and lead, noting that his ability to turn “ideas into institutions and challenges into opportunities” sets him apart.
“In business and in service, you have shown that true success is not measured by wealth or power but by the impact we make and the lives we touch,” he said.
Describing 40 as a “special age that bridges youthful drive and the deeper wisdom that life brings,” Tinubu praised his son’s values of discipline, integrity, and hard work.
“Our entire family is proud of you. We are proud of the family you are building with Layal, your devotion as a husband and father, and your commitment to making a difference in your generation,” he added.
Tinubu prayed for Seyi’s continued wisdom, good health, and peace, saying, “Happy 40th birthday, my son. You have made us proud, and I know you will continue to make Nigeria proud.”
