President Muhammadu Buhari has showered encomiums on Ganiat Fawehinmi, wife of late legal luminary and human rights activist on her 70th birthday, praising her for carrying on with the work of her husband.
Both Buhari and Ganiat met last year at the State House when she picked a posthumous award, GCON, for her husband, Gani Fawehinmi.
President Buhari commended Ganiat Fawehinmi for always sharing her experience, insights and wisdom with upcoming leaders, and inspiring many to live for the greater good of humanity.
According to a statement by Special Adviser, Femi Adesina, President Buhari joined Fawehinmi’s family and friends in the joy of celebrating another auspicious milestone.
“As Mrs Fawehinmi turns 70, President Buhari affirms that her zeal to see a better life for Nigerians, especially the poor and underprivileged remains indelible, underscoring the many risks involved, pains suffered and the frustrations she has endured in seeing that the country turns out greater”.
