The President’s congratulatory message is contained in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, in Abuja on Tuesday.

He joined the National Assembly, Nigerian Bar Association, friends and family of “the erudite and charismatic leader in celebrating the years of remarkable achievements and awards that have culminated into this golden jubilee.”

He affirmed that Dogara’s personal attributes of selflessness, maturity and friendliness had substantially eased the relationship between the Executive and the Legislative arm.

Buhari said that this had resulted in the passage of bills that directly impacted on the livelihood of Nigerians.

While recalling his personal interactions with the Speaker, and having followed his political trajectory in the House of Representatives, Buhari stated that Nigeria’s future could only be secured with great leadership by younger Nigerians.

According to the president, such leaders are fired with the zeal to build one great nation that everyone can call a home.
