Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has urged Muslims Ummah and indeed all Nigerians to work in unity and pray for the progress and prosperity of Nigeria.
In his goodwill message for the Eid-el-Kabir festival signed by his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Adejuwon Soyinka, the governor called on all Nigerians, irrespective of their religious, ethnic or political leaning to join hands in support of the efforts of the federal government towards revitalizing the Nigerian economy.
According to him, “If we all come together irrespective of our religious, ethnic and political differences to contribute our own quota to the development of this country, I have no doubt in my mind that Nigeria will speedily overcome its current economic challenges,” Amosun said.
The governor explained that at the very core of the Eid-El-Kabir celebration is a lesson in total obedience and selfless service as exemplified by the decision of Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah.
Drawing from that example, the governor said, “If Nigerians would all imbibe values such as respect for the rule of law, selfless service and eschew all forms of corruption, then the country can quickly overcome its current challenges and come out stronger and better.”
