Eid-el-Fitr: Keep praying for us, Adeleke urges Muslims

Ademola Adeleke, the Osun State Governor, has requested for peace and unity,  among residents of the state and the country at large.

The Governor also advised Muslims, on their celebration of the Eid-el-Fitr, to continue to pray for his administration.

This statement was made by the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, on Wednesday  in Osogbo.

Adeleke said, “Congratulations to my Muslim brethren for seeing yet another Eid-el-Fitr celebration.

“In the last 30 days, we have fasted and prayed for ourselves, our family, and our nation.

“I want to urge you all to keep praying for us. Pray for our administration as prayer is never too much.

“As Yoruba people will always say, what is already good needs prayer and the one that is yet to be, also needs prayer.

“Let us also make sure that now and beyond, we live in unity because united we stand and divided we fall.’’

Adeleke further expressed commitment to the speedy completion of the Muslim Pilgrim camp in the state.

He noted that his administration was committed to the completion of every project.
