The President felicitated with Otunba Onayigaโ€™s family, friends and professional colleagues on the milestone, which has been signposted by many years of diligent work and lofty experience as a political correspondent and editor with the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, who masterfully reported on political events of the second, third and fourth republics.
