All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader, Sen. Bola Tinubu, has congratulated Alhaja Sadiat Erogbogbo ahead of her 90th birthday.

Erogbogbo, who is mother to the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa is a retired teacher, community leader and businesswoman.

In a congratulatory message on Saturday, the former governor of Lagos commended the “kind teacher” for her devotion to Allah and life of service to humanity.

Mama Erogbogbo was born in Kano in 1930, schooled in Lagos and later taught in Kano, Lagos and Jos, during which she earned the name, “Kind Teacher”.

The APC leader noted that Erogbogbo continued to contribute significantly to the development and propagation of Islam in the country.

He added that she was still a committed member of Ansar-Ur-Deen Society even in her old age.

“Fondly called “Kind teacher”, l recall that Mama positively impacted the lives of many students who passed through her and set them on good path in life,” he said.

“I wish Mama continued vitality, sound mind and robust health to witness more years in life,” Tinubu said.
