IBADAN- A federal commissioner from Oyo state at the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, Abuja, Hon Bimbo Kolade, has called on Muslims to use the occasion of Eid-el-Kabir to offer special prayers for the healing and progress of Oyo State and Nigeria as a whole.
In a statement issued from his media office, the Federal Commissioner, while congratulating Muslims, said the festive period should be used to reflect on the significance of the celebration, which he said borders on encouraging piety, sacrifice and love, noting that without these, no State or Society could advance.
The former Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters in the state felicitates all Muslims and wished them God’s guidance, blessings, and protection beyond the celebrations.
The statement also quoted Bimbo Kolade as urging Muslims to continue to live in peace and engage in continuous prayers for the development and progress of the country and the world at large.
