By People’s Voice Nigeria | News
Prince Jimi Odimayo, a member of the House of Representatives representing the good people of Okitipupa-Irele Federal Constituency, today congratulates the adherents and followers of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) on the occasion of this year’s Sallah celebration.
This is contained in a press statement personally signed by him to celebrate Muslims, who are his constituents at home and abroad.
“Eid-el-Kabir is a significant religious rite performed by Muslims across the world. It commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God.”
“I congratulate all the adherents of the Islamic religion for seeing yet another year of Sallah celebration. This period no doubt calls for sober reflection, as the father of faith obeyed Allah to sacrifice his only son. We must pursue peace that comes with obedience and love among all”, he said.
“However, in this critical time that Nigeria is just finding her footing in virtually all sectors, I urge us to embrace unity as we are bonded by the same cord tied by our heroes past. We must at this auspicious moment bury our differences as a country and forge a common front that will bring us to our destined height as the Giant of Africa and the eyes of the world.”
“I implore the great people from Okitipupa-Irele Federal Constituency to join me in bringing the dividends of democracy closer to the people than before.” “My confidence in the government of President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas, shall remain unwavering, and my loyalty, unflinching. I use my two national leaders as a point of contact to wish all Nigerian Muslims a Happy Sallah Celebration”, he concluded.
