The Deputy Chairman House of Representatives on Agriculture, Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju, has charged Muslim faithful in Ekiti North Federal Constituency II and Nigeria at large not to go back to all the forsaken habits during Ramadan but to sustain good habits.
The federal lawmaker who hails from Otun-Ekiti gave the charge in his congratulatory message to all Muslims on the completion of the 2023 Ramadan.
According to him, Muslims are expected to keep to the tenets of the Holy Quran during and after Ramadan.
If It was possible for us to keep away from certain habits considered unbecoming of Muslim faithful during Ramadan, it should not be difficult for us to forsake such for the rest of our lives.
“We should continue with all our good deeds of Ramadan and make them our ways of life. That’s the purpose and the teaching of Holy Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Unto Him).
“We are not people of genuine faith if our concern and love for our neighbours only last during Ramadan,” Olarewaju stated.
He urged Muslim faithfuls to celebrate in moderation and let things be done within the ambit of civility and consideration for others.
While urging them to pray for Governor Oyebanji’s led administration in Ekiti State to be more successful and that of the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as he takes over the mantle of leadership of Nigeria come May 29, 2023 in other to be beneficial for the country’s leadership at all levels.
