EID – E FITRI : OYEMOMI CALLS FOR PEACE, UNITY AND FEAR OF GOD.
***** Felicitates with Muslim faithfuls.
Dr. Ezekiel Oyebola Oyemomi, one of the leading contestants for the Governorship race under the platform of All Progressive Congress (APC) in the State of Osun, has called on Muslims globally, especially those in Osun State to fear God, respect his wishes, let unity be our watchwords, be more tolerant to each other and eschew peace in a developing Nation. These attributes he believes can lead Nigeria to where it deserves to be.
In a Press Release signed from his Ire De Campaign office in Osogbo, Dr. Oyemomi opined that “irrespective of our religious differences, the fact remains that we one before God. Also, God is of love, patience and love. We should always look into this and make God happy. Whoever can make God happy will definitely make his fellow human beings happy. Besides this, we are one in unity”.
He stressed further that we should give room for unity and imbibe all the Islamic tenets, most especially as its being done during the fasting period.
“We grew up loving and cherishing one another. We have our parents celebrating with others irrespective of their own religion; no chaos. Why must we now allow religion to create unnecessary gap among us? Why must we close our eyes to the plight of our neighbours? We are building a great Nation that will be better for our generations both born and unborn. My prayer is that Nigeria, and mostly the State of Osun should be a haven of peace and harmony. We have no other place than home’’.
Going further, Oyemomi who has started his campaign tour and has visited more than 10 local governments areas as of the time of filing this report, went further to urge everyone to allow peace to reign as it is one of the best way development can be witnessed in a democratic environment.
The Technocrat and former Federal Permanent Secretary who hails from Olugbon Compound, Orile-Owu in Ayedaade Local government of the State of Osun retorted on a parting note that the issue of harmony , equity, justice and fair play would be some of the key parts of his core agenda if elected governor of the state.
“I am happy that peace is reigning in the State of Osun ”. He concluded.
