Former presidential candidate, Dr. Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim, commended the Muslim faithful on their devotion, perseverance and commitment to the month-long supplication to God.
He stated this while congratulating Nigeria’s Muslim faithful as the country marks the end of Ramadan.
The Eid Mubarak marks the end of the annual fast by Muslims all over the world to end the month-long supplication to God for forgiveness and blessings.
In a message on his Facebook page, Olawepo-Hashim remarked that “as we mark the completion of Ramadan and celebrate Eid-el-Fitr, “I join millions of Nigerians and the global community in congratulating you on this joyous occasion.”
According to him, “Ramadan has been a period of spiritual rejuvenation, self-reflection, and sacrifice.
“Your devotion, perseverance, and commitment to your faith are a testament to the values that bind us together as a people.”
The frontline politician added that “as we celebrate Eid-el-Fitr let us remember the lessons of Ramadan: compassion, forgiveness, and the pursuit of peace.
“May these values continue to guide us as we strive to build a more just and equitable society.”
Olawepo-Hashim therefore urged “all Muslim faithful and wishes them a joyous Eid-el-Fitr celebration filled with love, laughter, and time with family and friends.”
