"President Buhari congratulates the former Commissioner of Information in Kwara State on the milestone, preceded by years of hard work and focus that have seen his steady rise in journalism, with contributions to the development of the country, particularly in youth and community development," the statement said. "As the journalist turns 60, the President notes his interest in always projecting the strength of the country, and the continent, in representation on the Executive Board of the IPI, commending his sense of patriotism and commitment to nation building.

"President Buhari prays that the almighty God will grant Adedoyin, fondly called Oloriewe, longer life, good health and strength."

Born July 23, 1961, Mr Adedoyin hails from Ijomu-Oro town in Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State.

He attended Ansarul Islam Grammar School, Ijomu-Oro and the University of Lagos where he studied Mass Communication.
