The Bishop stated this in a message signed by Celestine Toruka, Deputy Director and Head of Media and Public Relations, 8th April 2024
Commending Muslims for the successful completion of their fasting during the holy month of Ramadan acknowledged that it’s a spiritual benefit aimed at strengthening their faith and belief in God.
He therefore, urged them to use the medium to foster inter-faith harmony, peace, and love among people of diverse faiths and called for more collaboration with the federal government at various levels to enhance governance in Nigeria.
Additionally, Bishop Adegbite emphasized the importance of continuing to uphold Nigeria and its leaders in prayer. He also urged Muslims to pray for the success of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the Federal Government led by President Bola Tinubu and to view the government as a partner in progress.
Lastly, he called on them to shun anything that will undermine the Nation’s interest and ensure they support any good cause so that together we can all reap the dividends of democracy.
