Governor of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has extended warm felicitations to Muslim faithful in Edo State and across Nigeria on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr, marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Dr. Patrick Akhere Ebojele, the governor commended the Muslim community for their devotion, discipline, and spiritual commitment demonstrated through fasting, prayers, and acts of charity during Ramadan.
He noted that the values of sacrifice, compassion, tolerance, and selflessness upheld during the period are vital for building a peaceful, united, and prosperous society.
Okpebholo urged Muslims to sustain these virtues beyond Ramadan and continue to promote harmony, mutual respect, and peaceful coexistence among citizens, irrespective of religious or ethnic differences.
The governor reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to inclusive governance, economic development, and the welfare of all residents, stressing that unity remains key to achieving sustainable growth in the state.
He also called on Edo people to use the festive period to pray for continued peace, stability, and development of the state and the country.
“Eid-el-Fitr is a time of joy, reflection, and gratitude. Let us celebrate in peace, extend love to one another, and remain steadfast in our shared responsibility to build a better Edo State,” the governor said.
He wished all Muslim faithful a peaceful and joyous Eid celebration.
