President Bola Tinubu yesterday, 08 April congratulated an Ijebu Prince, Alhaji Alliyu Babatunde Oduwole, as he marks his 80th birthday. According to a statement on Sunday by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, Oduwole, an active citizen and believer in Nigeria’s potential for greatness, has embarked on many lofty advocacies to promote public accountability, peace, and dialogue. In 2015, the statement said he created a plethora of fora to discuss ‘Project Nigeria’; held citizen-engagement meetings and submitted a memorandum on constitutional amendments to the National Assembly in 2022. In 2018, it stated that he founded the United Muslim Community Care Foundation to feed indigent Nigerians of all religious persuasions. The foundation, it added, has been feeding many families during this Ramadan and providing them with some stipends. “As Alhaji Oduwole marks the milestone birthday, the president wishes him good health and renewed vigour in his service to humanity,” it added.
