President Tinubu Pens Heartfelt Birthday Letter to Son Seyi on 40th Milestone

ABUJA – President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has written a deeply personal and moving birthday message to his son, Seyi Tinubu, as he marks his 40th birthday.

In the letter released from the Presidential Villa on Tuesday, the President expressed gratitude to God for Seyi’s life, praising his “focus, courage, and humility” and commending the impactful life he has built.

“You have walked your path with focus, courage, and humility, and you have done so with a heart that seeks to build, serve, and uplift others,” the President wrote.

Reflecting on Seyi’s early years, President Tinubu noted his son’s determination and leadership qualities, acknowledging how he has “turned ideas into institutions and challenges into opportunities,” particularly through his company, Loatsad, and other business ventures.

The President highlighted that true success is not merely about wealth or power but about the “impact we make and the lives we touch.”

He described forty as a special age that “bridges youthful drive and the more profound wisdom that life brings,” adding that Seyi has carried his name with honour and upheld values of “discipline, integrity, and hard work.”

The letter also spotlighted Seyi’s philanthropic efforts through the Noella Foundation, which has supported education, youth empowerment, and maternal and child welfare across Nigeria.

“Through your work with the Noella Foundation, you have brought hope to families across Nigeria, created opportunities for many young people, and extended compassion to those in need,” the President stated.

He expressed pride not only in Seyi’s professional and charitable work but also in his roles as a husband to Layal and a father, describing him as devoted and committed to building a strong family.

In his closing remarks, President Tinubu offered prayers for wisdom, good health, and peace for his son, assuring him: “You have made us proud, and I know you will continue to make Nigeria proud.”

The letter, signed “Your Dad, Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” blends paternal affection with public acknowledgment, offering a rare glimpse into the First Family’s personal milestones.


READ LETTER

My Dear Son, Seyi,

As you turn forty, I thank Almighty God for your life and the man you have become. You have walked your path with focus, courage, and humility, and you have done so with a heart that seeks to build, serve, and uplift others.

From an early age, you have shown determination and a desire to create and lead. I have watched you turn ideas into institutions and challenges into opportunities. In business through Loatsad and your various endeavors, and in service, you have shown that true success is not only measured by wealth or power but by the impact we make and the lives we touch.

Forty is a special age. It bridges youthful drive and the more profound wisdom that life brings. You have carried your name with honour and have remained faithful to the values of discipline, integrity, and hard work.

Through your work with the Noella Foundation, you have brought hope to families across Nigeria, created opportunities for many young people, and extended compassion to those in need. Your commitment to philanthropy, especially in education, social development, youth empowerment, and maternal and child welfare, reflects the values I hold dear.

Our entire family is proud of you. We are proud of the family you are building with Layal, your devotion as a husband and father, and your commitment to making a difference in your generation.

As you celebrate this milestone, remember that your strength lies in what you achieve and how you inspire others to believe. May God bless you with wisdom, good health, and peace.

Happy 40th Birthday, my son. You have made us proud, and I know you will continue to make Nigeria proud.

Your Dad,

Bola Ahmed Tinubu,
President and Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
The Aso Villa,
