By Abubakar Suleman
The Executive Secretary of Kogi State Emergency Management Agency, SEMA, Alhaji Mouktar Atimah, has congratulated all the Muslim Ummah in Central Senatorial district, Kogi State and Nigeria on the successful celebration of EID-EL-KABIR.
He called on Kogites to put the interest of the State above personal interests and use religion as a motivation for the love of our common humanity.
In his Sallah message to Kogi Muslims and other citizens, he urged them to rally support for our workaholic Governor, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo to succeed by “consolidating on the good work of his predecessor”, former Governor Yahaya Bello in leading Kogi State on the path of sustainable development.
The SEMA Boss assured that the Administration of Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo is committed to safeguarding the lives and property of all Kogi residents.
According to him, all Muslims need to reflect on the significance of the sacrifice epitomised by Eid-el-Adha. We should show love to our neighbours while celebrating this spiritually important festive period.
The story of prophet Ibrahim (A.S) led to this sacrificial celebration teaches us the virtues of patience, obedience and reliance on Allah, and the strength that comes with the ultimate faith. He added.
