The level of confidence President Bola Tinubu reposes in the Minister of Interior, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, was once again highlighted on Tuesday as the minister represented the President at the grand celebration marking Ondo State’s 50th anniversary.
Tunji-Ojo, an indigene of Ondo State, attended the historic event on behalf of President Tinubu, a role many political observers and supporters described as a clear signal of trust, loyalty and confidence in his leadership capacity.
Shortly after the event, the Minister shared a video from the celebration on his social media platforms, prompting an outpouring of reactions from supporters, party members and citizens across Ondo State and beyond.
Reacting to the post, several commenters noted that being chosen to represent the President at such a symbolic state event underscores Tinubu’s belief in Tunji-Ojo’s competence, dedication and selfless service to the nation.
One supporter, Temitope Daramola, wrote:
“To represent PBAT on such an occasion simply shows his trust and love for you, along with your selfless service to his government and Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.”
Others praised Tunji-Ojo’s performance at the Ministry of Interior, particularly reforms credited with improving Nigeria’s immigration system.
“Thanks for making the immigration system easy and worthwhile. We are taking note of your exceptional contributions in nation building,” Daramola added.
Supporters also hailed Tunji-Ojo as a pride of Ondo State, with comments describing him as a “capacity leader,” “our pride,” and a worthy representative of the President.
For many observers, the Ondo@50 outing reinforced Tunji-Ojo’s growing stature within the Tinubu administration and strengthened perceptions of his strategic importance to the President’s governance agenda.
