In a goodwill message released through his head of media, Aderibigbe Yisahu, he described Ramadan as a period of deep reflection, sacrifice, and devotion, noting that the lessons of the holy month should not end with its conclusion.
According to him, “Ramadan has been a sacred period of spiritual renewal, self-discipline, and devotion to Almighty Allah.
As we celebrate Eid-el-Fitr, I urge all Muslim faithful to sustain the virtues of love, compassion, unity, and selflessness that the holy month has instilled in us.”
He further prayed that all acts of worship, including fasting, charity, and supplications observed during Ramadan, are accepted by Almighty Allah.
