PRESIDENT BUHARI JOINS NOLLYWOOD IN CELEBRATING OLU JACOBS AT 80 


President Muhammadu Buhari  joins Nollywood and  professional actors, home and abroad, in celebrating stage and screen icon, Olu Jacobs, on his 80th birthday, July 11, 2022.

The President felicitates with the Jacob’s’ family, including the wife, also a renowned thespian, Joke Silva, and their friends on the auspicious occasion, which calls for thanksgiving  for God's care, guidance and protection. 

President Buhari affirms the influence of the veteran actor  on the film industry, setting a standard of professionalism  that has attracted global recognition and awards, like the Lifetime Achievement Awards  conferred on him in 2016 by African Movie Academy Awards. 

As the actor turns 80, the President notes his ingenious  ability to interpret roles, simplify complex issues and bring messages to the understanding of both young and old, levelling cultural, ethnic and religious barriers to become a household name all over the country and beyond. 

Largely stereotyped as a father and voice of wisdom in most movies, President Buhari believes Olu Jacobs’ natural tendency to counsel, inspire and instruct easily earned him the roles, while appreciating his foresight in winning many into the profession and guiding them to stardom.

The President prays that the Almighty God will grant him better health, longer life and steadfastness in service to the Arts, God, and humanity.
