A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo state, Akogun Sharafadeen Alli on Saturday congratulated Muslims in the state and across the world for witnessing this year Ramadan.
Alli advised Muslims to pray for return of peace to Oyo state, Nigeria, and the entire world, especially the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.
The former secretary to the state government who is also Maye Balogun of Ibadanland stated this in a statement he personally signed in Ibadan urged Muslims to beseech God almighty in prayers, for Nigerians are going through difficult times.
The statement reads in part; “I congratulate you on this special commencement of this year Ramadan. I want to advise all Muslims to use this period to pray for return of peace to our dear state, Nigeria, and the entire world, particularly Ukraine where innocent children and other civilians are being killed daily.
“It is a privilege for you and I to witness yet another Ramadan, hence, we want to appreciate God for the opportunity.”
Alli further urged Muslims to put into practice the teachings of prophet Muhammad (saw) which is simply for them to be their brothers keeper.
“Since Ramadan fasting symbolises the period of spiritual rejuvenation, I urge our Muslim brothers and sisters to continue to put into practice the teachings of Prophet Muhammed. Part of such teachings is to be our brother’s keepers and ensure service to humanity. May our prayers during the holy month be answered and may our good deeds be rewarded by Allah.”
