Member, House Of Representatives, representing Ibadan North-East/South-East Federal constituency, Hon. Abass A. Adigun (Agboworin) greets Nigerians and Muslims in particular as they commence the month-long Ramadan fast.
The lawmaker in a message on the first day of the holy month of Ramadan, called for the continued peace, progress and prosperity of the country.
Hon. Abass noted that Islam is a religion of peace that upholds the values of tolerance and mutual coexistence without a place for hatred and violence.
He urged Muslims to use the fasting period to build a relationship of friendship and harmony with fellow citizens of other faiths.
In this holy month of Ramadan, let us note that self denial by way of fasting is a metaphor of spiritual sacrifice, a down payment on our faith in expectations of divine mercy and blessings of Allah SWT, he briefed.
Hon. Agboworin prayed to Allah for the continued peace, progress, and the wellbeing of his constituency(Ibadan North-East/South-East federal constituency), Oyo State and the country, Nigeria.
