President Muhammadu Buhari has felicitated with the Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, as he marks his 55th birthday anniversary.

The president, in a release on Friday by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, thanked the minister for the positive energy, patriotism and the invaluable contributions he brings in manning a very important ministry, which is strategic in moulding a better future for the country and harnessing the innate potentials and talent of Nigerians in sports.

President Buhari joined members of the Dare family, friends and well-wishers in praying for good health and happiness for the celebrant, who has maintained a track record of excellence as a journalist and public office holder, having served as a former Executive Commissioner in Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) before he came on board as a minister.
