Ibadan – Senator Yunus Akintunde, the Distinguished Senator representing Oyo Central Senatorial District, has extended warm felicitations to Muslim faithful on the occasion of Eid-el- Fitri.
In a statement made available to the media through his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Kunle Olatunji, the Senator enjoined Muslims to continue to uphold the values of piety, prayer, love, sacrifice, and benevolence which the holy season represents, noting that these virtues remain central to the teachings of the Holy Qur’an and the Hadith.
Dr. Akintunde expressed gratitude to Almighty Allah for His mercies and benevolence, especially throughout the holy period. He also appreciated the opportunity to facilitate meaningful progress for constituents during the period, including the successful facilitation of appointments for some constituents whose letters were released in the NRS, and the Federal Polytechnic, Ayede.
According to the Senator:
“During this year’s Ramadan period, aside from several personal milestones, I am particularly delighted to have facilitated appointments for some of our constituents in the NRS (Nigeria Revenue Services) and Federal Polytechnic, Ayede. Equally gratifying is the commencement of the amendment process on my sponsored Federal Medical Centre Act Amendment Bill to accommodate the Mother and Child Hospital in Ona-Ara Local Government Area. These are landmark achievements recorded within the holy month.”
Senator Akintunde assured the people of Oyo Central that his commitment to doing more for the benefit of the constituency remains unwavering. He emphasized that his office will continue to engage and partner with stakeholders on the implementation of various economic empowerment programmes, human capacity development initiatives, and key capital projects captured in the consolidated budget in the months ahead.
He wished all Muslim faithful a peaceful and joyous celebration.
Eid Mubarak.
