Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has warmly congratulated the Muslim community as they celebrate Eid-el-Maulud, the birthday of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). This important occasion is a time for reflection and renewal of values that promote harmony and peace within society.
In a detailed statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Lekan Adeniran, on Monday, Governor Abiodun underscored the significance of Eid-el-Maulud as a reminder of the fundamental values of love, compassion, and tolerance. These principles are essential for fostering a peaceful and cohesive society, especially in a country as diverse as Nigeria.


The governor expressed his hope that the celebration of Eid-el-Maulud will inspire all citizens to embrace these core values. By doing so, he believes that everyone can contribute to a more inclusive and respectful environment, where different religious and cultural groups coexist harmoniously. He emphasized that the diversity of Ogun State is one of its greatest strengths, and it is crucial for all residents to come together to promote peace and unity across religious and cultural boundaries.


Governor Abiodun highlighted that the teachings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) focus on kindness, charity, and mutual respect. As the Muslim community celebrates this special day, he urged everyone to reflect on these teachings and integrate them into their daily lives. By doing so, Ogun State can serve as a model of peace and unity, setting an example for the rest of the country.
The governor also called upon all religious leaders to play a proactive role in fostering peaceful dialogue and understanding within their communities. He stressed that religious leaders have a vital responsibility to bridge gaps between different faiths and promote a culture of mutual respect and cooperation.


Governor Abiodun acknowledged that building and maintaining a harmonious society requires collective effort and dedication. He encouraged all citizens, regardless of their faith or background, to engage in actions that reflect the values of tolerance and compassion. This will contribute to a more unified and supportive community, where every individual feels valued and respected.
In his statement, Governor Abiodun also appealed to the Muslim faithful to continue praying for the success of his administration and the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He reassured them that significant efforts are being made to improve the nation and make Nigeria a better place for everyone.
The governor concluded by emphasizing that the celebration of Eid-el-Maulud should not only be a time of festivity but also a period of reflection on how each individual can contribute to a more harmonious and peaceful society. He expressed his confidence that with continued commitment to these values, Ogun State can thrive as a beacon of unity and mutual respect.
By embracing these principles, Governor Abiodun believes that the state and the nation as a whole can move toward a brighter and more inclusive future.
