Eid-el-fitri: Ododo calls for prayers for national peace, progress
By Stephen Adeleye
Alhaji Usman Ododo, APC Governorship candidate for Kogi election, has called for continued prayers for the country to engender national unity, peace and progress.
In a statement on Friday in Lokoja, Ododo also congratulated Muslims on the successful completion of Ramadan Fast, and urged them to imbibe the spirit of humility, love and sacrifice that the season represented.
According to him, the Holy Month of Ramadan is a blessing to him, following his emergence in the just concluded Governorship Primaries, saying his victory is one of the blessings of the month of Ramadan.
Ododo enjoined Muslims to imbibe the lessons beyond the Holy month, to earn them Allah’s blessings, and called for continued prayers for the country to engender national unity, peace and progress.
The APC flag bearer urged residents of the state to watch out, be security alert and report suspicious movement, capable of causing security breach, to the security agents. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
