PRESIDENT BUHARI REJOICES WITH INDUSTRIAL ECONOMIST, PA DEJI FASUAN, AT 90

President Muhammadu Buhari says he appreciates the grace of God in the life of Chief Deji Fasuan, an industrial economist who turns 90, on October 1, 2021.

The President made the statement on Thursday to rejoices with the Fasuan family, the people and government of Ekiti State, as they celebrate the Jagunmolu of Ado-Ekiti and Asiwaju of Afao-Ekiti, at the landmark age.

In a statement by Femi Adesina, Speical Adviser on Media and Publicity, President Buhari applauds a life devoted to the service of the country, particularly as one of the builders of the public service in the former Western Region, and founding General Manager of Investment Corporation, the most successful arm of the Old Ondo State government.

Pa Fasuan, the President notes, trained as an economist at the Fourah Bay College, Sierra Leone, in the 1950s, and specialized later as an Industrial Economist at the World Bank Headquarters, Washington DC, and used all the endowments to serve his country creditably.

President Buhari wishes one of the Founding Fathers of Ekiti State good health, sound mind and peace, as he turns a nonagenarian.
