Images: Sanwo-Olu marks 60th Birthday with Special Thanksgiving

The Governor had earlier posted his birthday message on his X-platform:
 
"Today, I turn 60. Sixty years of experiences, lessons and blessings. I woke up this morning feeling grateful, not just for the years, but for the journey itself.

Today is a moment to pause and reflect. I’ve learned that public service is one of the highest callings. It’s not always easy, but it’s deeply fulfilling. Every day, I wake up knowing there’s more to do, more to give, more to build.

Public service teaches you a great deal. It teaches patience. It teaches you how to listen, and how to keep going even when the path is difficult. I’m still learning. I’m always learning.

So today, I’m thankful, for life, for the trust of Lagosians, the people I serve, and for the opportunity to keep working toward something greater than myself.

Then all the way led to Eko Hotels and Suites in Victoria Island for a Special Thanksgiving Service in commemoration of his Diamond Jubilee with family, friends, colleagues, top  government functionaries and dignatries.
