The Minority leader of the Ogun State House of Assembly, Hon Lukmon Adeleye, has urged Nigerians never to lose hope but be more committed to promoting peace and sacrifice for the good of the Nation.
Hon. Adeleye stated this in a statement to mark this year’s Eid El Kabir festival as Muslims across the globe celebrate.
The minority leader of the 10th Assembly who observed that the lessons of Eid El Kabir focussed on sacrifice and hope, said Nigerians must be willing to sacrifice and allow peace if any tangible development must be achieved.
According to him, “development can not take place in an atmosphere of rancour or feud, we need peace to be able to move forward and grow. Let’s work in unity and love to be able to serve our people well.”
The minority leader noted that, “Eid with its focus on harmony, mutual respect and understanding, is a befitting occasion to affirm these qualities, and celebrate the values that make us who we are”.
Hon. Adeleye, representing Odogbolu state constituency, felicitates Muslims with a prayer that all will be well with the country and Ogun State.
He also prayed and wished all Muslims in Odogbolu a blessed and happy Eid – El – Kabir, saying “may all the peace and fulfillment of Eid be ours.”
He also urged all the people of Odogbolu community to celebrate in peace and be each other’s keeper while celebrating in moderation.
