Eid-el-Fitri: Utilise spiritual reset mode to pray against banditry, kidnapping, APC urges Islamic faithful
AREWA AGENDA – The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Oyo State, has charged Muslim faithful to use their spiritual reset mode to pray for the country for peace against the current malaise of banditry, insurgency and kidnapping that is threatening the corporate existence of Nigeria.
The party, in its Eid-el-Fitri message to the Muslim faithful, issued by its caretaker Publicity Secretary, Dr Abdul-Azeez Olatunde, charged the Islamic faithful to imbibe the lesson learned during the month-long Ramadan fast to continue to guide their daily interactions in other months.
The statement stated that the most salient and unforgettable lesson learnt was the spirit of sharing, especially breaking of fast, called Iftar with the less privileged in the society which mostly makes the month of Ramadan very unique.
The statement read: “APC Oyo State is congratulating the Muslims across the state for witnessing another Eid-el-Fitri, which followed 30 days of fasting in the just concluded month of Ramadan.”
