President Bola Tinubu has extended his heartfelt felicitations to Ekiti State Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji on his 58th birthday on December 21, 2025.
The President highlights Oyebanji’s stewardship and commitment to the development of the state over the years, through his position as Secretary to the Committee on the Creation of Ekiti and later in his public service positions.
Oyebanji was Special Adviser to the state’s first civilian governor, Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo, and later became his Chief of Staff.
He was Commissioner for Integration and Intergovernmental Affairs during the first-term administration of the immediate-past governor of the state, Dr Kayode Fayemi, and later served as Secretary to the State Government.
Oyebanji was elected Ekiti governor in 2022. He has already secured the All Progressives Congress’ nomination to contest for a second term in office in 2026.
President Tinubu notes the state’s infrastructural development under Oyebanji’s watch, particularly his special focus on the agricultural and aviation sectors, among others.
The President congratulates the governor on the completion of the Ekiti Agro-allied International Airport in the state capital, Ado-Ekiti, and the inauguration of flights.
President Tinubu wishes the governor many more years and continued impactful governance in the state.
