Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State and the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriations has expressed felicitations with Muslims on the occasion of the Eid-el Maulud festival celebrating the birth of the Prophet Muhammed.
In a message marking the occasion, the senator in a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Kayode Odunaro, on Tuesday, urged all Muslims and indeed other Nigerians to emulate the life and imbibe the teachings of the Holy Prophet Muhammed in the area of love, humility, peaceful coexistence and religious tolerance.
He added that most of the societal challenges and problems will be greatly minimized if all the adherents of the Islamic faith and indeed other Nigerians follow the teachings and precepts of the prophet.
Senator Adeola urged Muslims to pray for peace and security in the challenging times of Nigeria as we head towards another season of electoral campaigns and elections, stressing that our national challenges require all hands to be on deck including supplication to Almighty Allah for divine intervention to crown our sowing and sacrifices with great harvest.
“In his lifetime, Prophet Muhammed set critical criteria and precepts in all areas of life in his teachings and personal life. The world will be a better place for all if all can emulate the Holy Prophet’s examples of piety, love, humility, tolerance and sacrifice”, the statement concluded.
