The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has called on Muslim faithful across the state to sustain the virtues of patience, generosity, humility, and righteousness cultivated during Ramadan as they celebrate Eid al-Fitr.
In a statement issued yesterday in Abeokuta, the Governor commended Muslims for their dedication throughout the 30-day fasting period, noting that Ramadan was not only a time of abstinence from food and drink but also a season marked by increased acts of charity, compassion, and support for the less privileged.
Abiodun expressed appreciation to the Muslim community for their consistent prayers for peace, progress, and good governance in Ogun State and across Nigeria, emphasizing that such spiritual support remains crucial in fostering unity, stability, and democratic growth.
“As our Muslim brothers and sisters celebrate Eid al-Fitr, we join them in gratitude to Almighty Allah for granting the grace to witness the end of this blessed month,” he said.
The Governor reiterated his administration’s commitment to inclusive governance, social welfare, and the continued development of Ogun State for the benefit of all residents, irrespective of religious affiliation.
He concluded by praying for peace, prosperity, and divine blessings upon the state and the nation, wishing all Muslims a joyous and spiritually fulfilling Eid celebration.
