Osun State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate,Omooba Dotun Babayemi, has called on Muslims to pray for the emergence of a rejuvenated and prosperous Osun, especially as it is gearing for the election of a new governor.
Babayemi while congratulating the Muslims on the commencement of this year’s ramadan, said it has become imperative for them to commit the state into serious prayers, especially as it heads for July 16 governorship election.
The PDP gubernatorial candidate who stated these in a release from his Media Office, noted that this year’s month-long fasting exercise would be spiritually beneficial to the state and its people.
“The inherent sobriety enshrined in ramadan,offers the opportunity for people, especially the Muslims, to genuinely seek the face of Allah on various issues of life.This is another opportunity to call on our Creator during the holy month of Ramadan, to come to our rescue in all areas of concerns”the popular politician implored
He added that;”For us in Osun, this year’s ramadan can never come at a time better than now, it’s not a coincidence that the fasting exercise is coming up three months to our election. Let us kindly avail ourselves of this all-important opportunity to pray for a better Osun, through my emergence as governor at the coming polls”
Babayemi promised to live up to his billings when elected into office as governor of the state, assuring, “By the grace of God, I won’t disappoint anyone in the state. Over the years, I have garnered much experience that can turn around the state for the common good of its people”
He prayed that God would grant all Muslims faithful strength and means to see through this year’s fasting exercise.
