According to him, “I want to sincerely congratulate Muslims in Oyo Central Senatorial district and our dear state for successfully witnessing the end of this year’s Ramadan fasting period, which came with tough spiritual challenges that were designed to strengthen their Iman. “At the heart of the faith and a major demand on all faithful is the requirement to commit themselves to wholesome living. This entails love for one another, love for fellow humans regardless of creed, region and ethnicity, love for our Senatorial District, our state and love for Nigeria.
“It is important that we all continue to live with the spirit of love, peace, sacrifices, holiness and harmony which Ramadan requires and it is important that we must become better citizens in line with the teachings of Prophet Muhammed.” The member of the Oyo State Advisory Council then prayed that the peace, blessings, and favour of Allah be with everyone, Oyo Central Senatorial District and Oyo State during this festive season and beyond.
