Engr. Ife Oyedele, Executive Director (Engineering and Technical Services), Niger Delta Power Holding Company Limited and a frontline governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, has felicitated with muslim faithful in Ondo State and across the country on the successful completion of the 2020 holy month of Ramadan.
Oyedele in a statement through his media aide, Yomi Adebayo, said Ramadan, being a month of utmost discipline and prayers offers Muslim faithful another rare opportunity to intercede for Nigeria and the world.
He said he believes the annual spiritual exercise which is a core part of Islam had been used to offer supplication to Almighty Allah at this period when the world is battling an unseen enemy which has affected the usual way of gathering together to worship God as well as socio-economic activities.
“The prophet (SAW) made it known that whatever is prayed for at the time of breaking the fast is granted and never refused. It is my believe that whatever good that has been asked concerning our country, Nigeria and Ondo State in the holy month has been granted and will surely come to frution,” Oyedele said.
“It is only a peaceful and healthy society that can engender and sustain individual and collective development. The effect of COVID-19 has brought the world to its knees and the entire world is seriously seeking the formula that will ensure survival. For me, the only unfailing formula is God. We must seek Him to heal the land and make it work in our favour again”. Oyedele said
The governorship hopeful enjoined Muslims to continue to live by the lessons learnt in the holy month and pray for the peace of Ondo State as it prepares for election to choose a new leader this year.
