As Muslims in Nigeria join their counterparts around the world to celebrate the Eid el-Kabir, a non-profit organisation, Ibadan Mega Voice, has called on Muslims faithful and Nigerians of other faith to offer prayers for Ibadan, Oyo State and the country.
Ibadan Mega Voice is a body of Media practitioners, who are indegenes of Ibadan city.
IMV President, Kola Olomide, in a Sallah message on Wednesday, said the present challenges facing the country, were surmountable.
He appreciated the key roles played by the Olubadan of Ibadan, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Lekan Balogun, the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde and other top brass from Ibadan in promoting economic stability, peace, unity, and love in the State.
Olomide, who wished all a happy Sallah celebration, stressed the need to multiply good deeds with kindness to fellow Muslims and others by helping and supporting the weak and vulnerable in our communities.
Olomide said Oyo State can achieve its full potential if every key political stakeholder could put aside differences and work together to build a virile Oyo State.
He admonished all to promote the values of love and obedience that Eid-el-Kabir represents.
Olomide used the opportunity to reiterate the commitment of IMV in promoting religious harmony and peaceful coexistence among all residents in the State.
‘We believe that Oyo State will grow stronger and better, when we all work together and respect each other’s faiths and beliefs.’
