President Bola Tinubu felicitates Dame Emmanuella Fashola, a former First Lady of Lagos State, on her 60th birthday on April 6.

The wife of Babatunde Fashola, a former Governor of Lagos State, is renowned for her contributions as an experienced administrator in education management and as a passionate advocate for health and socio-economic issues.

In a statement signed by the President’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, on Sunday, Tinubu acknowledged her impact on public awareness and sensitisation campaigns on children’s and women’s health.

Tinubu described Fashola as a steadfast pillar of support for her husband, offering tremendous help during his tenure as Lagos Governor and Minister of Works and Housing.

Dame Fashola is devoted to her family, seeing it as a priority and a haven for growth and development.

“Her marriage, characterised by religious tolerance – she is a devout Christian and her husband a Muslim – is a powerful example of unity and understanding, crucial elements in nation-building,” said Tinubu.

The President expressed his appreciation for Fashola’s enduring contributions to the people of Lagos, specifically her leadership of the Committee of Wives of Lagos State Officials.

“Her initiatives have notably included the inauguration of recreation centres and support for the screening and treatment of women with breast and cervical cancers,” he said.
