The Muslim community, however, commended Tegbe for his support for the Muslims over the years, including reaching out to religious leaders and the underprivileged during Ramadan and Eid el-Kabir festivals.
Tegbe, in his response, solicited the support of the Muslim Ummah for his senatorial ambition. He promised that he would continue to be available, and accessible l, adding that he would prioritise their welfare when elected as senator during the 2023 general elections.
The Oyo South senatorial candidate pledged continued hajj sponsorship of the Muslim faithful and donation of a bus to the League of Imams and Alfas for the smooth running of its activities.
He also assured them of quality representation and facilitation of projects that would have direct impacts on the lives of the people of the senatorial district, if elected senator in 2023.
