President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will early next month present the 2023 Integrity and Public Servant of the Year Award to the Director General of National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies (NILDS), Professor Abubakar Olanrewaju Sulaiman.
The Award presentation ceremony as contained in a letter signed by its National Coordinator, Dr. Mohammed Ibrahim, would be held at the State House Conference Centre.
The award-giving institutions are: Public Service Institutes (PSI), Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPP) and Nigerian Television Authority (NTA).
The DG NILDS, as stated in the Award letter titled: ‘Nomination as a Public Servant of the Year (Shehu Shagari Gold Medal)’, secured the highest number of votes after an extensive three-month consultation and rigorous voting process conducted by a panel of 51 members from the PCI – Technical Advisory Committee, representing five strategic public institutions in Nigeria.
Dr. Ibrahim in the letter added that “The Award presentation has received full endorsement from the presidency and technical support from the Public Service Institutes (PSI), Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, and Nigerian Television Authority (NTA)”.
The letter further explained that the former Minister of National Planning has been recognized for his exceptional contributions to Nigeria’s democratic institutions, a recognition validated by esteemed national and international organizations.
“This year’s edition of the award will coincide with the Nigerian Regulators Conference & Retreat, where President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is expected to present plaques and medals to deserving recipients,” the letter added
In an appreciative statement on the Award, the Information/Communication Assistant to NILDS Director General, Mrs. Joke Akinsanmi, said the Award is in recognition of Professor Sulaiman’s transformational leadership style and remarkable accomplishments over the years and in particular, in NILDS, within the last five years.
