Otunba Adeniyi Olayemi (So’Mi Edumare), Kogi West Peoples Democratic Party Senatorial Aspirant has sent a message of
felicitation to Muslim brothers and sisters on the auspicious occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Fitri celebrations .
The leading PDP aspirant congratulated faithfuls particularly those in Kogi West Senatorial District who have successfully undertaken the purifying Ramadan fast.
According to a statement, ” As we celebrate Eid-el-Fitri, it is my hope and prayers that Ramadan’s spiritual lessons and the Holy Prophet’s teachings of piety, love, justice, fairness, equity, peaceful co-existence with others, tolerance, honesty and dedication to duty will remain with us all for the benefit and greater glory of our Senatorial District .
May the lessons and blessings of the Holy Month also permeate into us all, and positively influence our attitudes towards our fellow countrymen and women, irrespective of their religion or places of origin; and promote greater commitment to the peace, unity and stability of the nation.
Although the observance of the Holy Month was sadly tainted in parts of the country with the continuing atrocities of extremists and terrorists in our midst, I urge all constituents of Kogi West to remain strong and resolute in defence of freedom, unity, law and order, peace, security and progress of the nation.
I feel the pains and anguish of all our brothers who have experienced the harrowing impact of terrorism unleashed on them by brainwashed and misguided agents of evil and disunity, but we must never throw up our hands in helplessness and despair as the terrorists and purveyors of anarchy want.
Going forward, let us all remain unwaveringly committed to showing solidarity with our Armed Forces and security agencies and giving them the full support they require to prosecute the war against terrorism to a successful conclusion.
I assure constituents, once again, that I’m totally committed to giving possible attention to the urgent task of improving the living conditions of our people in the Constituency if elected.
We cannot and will not be deterred from our goal of positively transforming our nation into a strong, united, progressive, stable, secure and prosperous nation in which all citizens will live in peace in spite of our immense diversities.
May Almighty Allah continue to bless our State, Kogi West in particular and all who have successfully undertaken this year’s Ramadan Fast.
I wish you all happy and peaceful Eid-el-Fitri celebrations.
