As the holy month of Ramadan commences, a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Dele Philips has called on Muslims in the State to use the period to re-establish and redeem their relationship with God and loved ones.
In a message to Muslims, Philips described Ramadan as one of the holiest periods for Muslims and its observance is widely felt across the nation.
In his words ” the beginning of this holy fast is highly significant to Nigeria at this time. We are in a transitional moment that calls for introspection into matters that affect us as a whole.”
According to a statement signed by his Special Assistant on Media, Iyiola Adetola, Dele Philips called on Muslims to remember Nigerians in their prayers and pray for peace and harmony in the nation.
Similarly, the party Chieftain encouraged Muslims to use the period to pray for the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as he looks forward to carrying out obligations before him.
Dele Philips said, “today, I urge everyone to keep faith with our Muslim brothers and sisters as they render consolidated spiritual discipline in prayers and fasting towards a common goal for peace and progress.”
“I wish you good health and a sound mind as you observe this period. Ramadan Mubarak and may Allah hear our prayers”, Philips added.
