Segun Adewale in Bauchi
The All Progressives Congress (APC) Youth Parliament, North-East, has congratulated the Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, on the occasion of his 59th birthday anniversary.
In a goodwill message issued in Bauchi on Tuesday, 2 September 2025, the Chairman of the Parliament, Mr. Kabiru Garba Kobi, described Shettima as a gentle leader who remains committed to the development of the North-East and Nigeria at large.
“On behalf of the entire youth of the North-East and the vast membership of the APC Youth Parliament, we rejoice with His Excellency on this momentous occasion of his 59th birthday. Indeed, this is a day to celebrate a leader of uncommon vision and purpose,” Kobi said.
He noted that Shettima’s exemplary leadership qualities, patriotism, and dedication to mentorship stand as a model for young Nigerians.
According to him, the Vice President has demonstrated resilience and capacity in addressing the nation’s socio-economic challenges.
The group further described Shettima as a true patriot, a committed leader, and a worthy son of the North-East, the likes of which the region has not witnessed since the passing of Nigeria’s Prime Minister, the late Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa.
“Your Excellency, Nigerian youths are proud of your achievements and will continue to support you in your service to the nation,” the message added.
The Parliament prayed for God’s continued blessings upon the Vice President, wishing him sound health, peace of mind, and many more fulfilling years ahead.
