Kessington Adebutu celebrates 80th birthday in style

The Chairman of Premier Lotto, Sir Kessington Adebutu, turned 80 a few days ago and is set to celebrate his membership of the octogenarian league in grand style. He is billed to host the high society to a big shindig in celebration of his new age.

The activities to mark his birthday had begun in earnest on Monday with a medical outreach for the general public. He began his celebration by offering free eye tests to children, cervical examination for women and general medical check for all and sundry at Iperu Remo, Ogun State.
Adebutu also added another feather to his cap as he bagged a chieftaincy title as the new Asoju Oba of Lagos. Thus no amount of celebration would be too grand to appreciate his eminence.
Adebutu himself understands this much, which is why he is leaving no stone unturned to celebrate his 80th birthday in grand style.
There will be a thanksgiving service at The Trinity Methodist Church, Tinubu, Lagos. The church service will be followed by a reception for guests at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.

But Washington said it would work with Buhari to likely increase the US’ level of support though it did not say whether that would include sales of lethal weapons earlier requested for by the Federal Government. The US Assistant Secretary, Bureau of African Affairs, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, during a telephone press briefing on Monday, held in South Africa at the 25th African Union Summit, and monitored by our correspondent in Lagos, stated that Washington was committed to ensuring that Nigeria wins its battle against the terrorist group. “Fighting terrorism is not easy.
