Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, has congratulated the Muslim community in Nigeria on the celebration of the 2012 Eid el fitr.

The governor also called for a better Nigeria based on the lessons imbibed during the Holy Month of Ramadan.

Amosun said the celebration of this year's Eid el Fitr should mark a turning point for all Nigerians.

According to the governor, "The lessons of piety, self discipline, spiritual awareness, brotherliness, love and compassion imbibed during Ramadan, if allowed to guide our future private and public conduct, will bring within our reach and attainment the dreams of our founding fathers for a peaceful and prosperous nation."

He called on Muslim faithful to lead the campaign for peaceful coexistence among Nigerians and respect for the sanctity of life, noting that "Islam is a religion of peace."

    • Thank you sir for this very brilliant message on this occasion of ITUNU-AWE! Please in the spirit of this Ramadan kindly consider the payment of severance allowances of the past local government functionaries that had left office since DEC. 27TH 2010. Majority of this people are facing untold hardship, frustration, and neglect. Please put sentiments apart, forget about whether they worked with OGD or NOT and do what is appropriate and SEE whether the Good God who had ordained you will not substain you!!! Ur excellency this people deserves 2 be rehabilitated before they die sir, KI ASi MAA RANTI WIPE ADIRE TI KO KU SI LE JE AGBADO, O SI NI TI KO SIN NI LODUN YII LE SIN ENI NII EEMI, TOTO OSE BI OWE. May d Almighty God take all your suplications during d ramadan as an act of IBADAH,

    • I hope our governor can emulate Rochas Okorocha of Imo state as far as selfless service is concerned, kindly lend a leave from his educational sector revitalization and general infrastructural rebuilding.
