EID-EL-FITR: Sustain Culture Of Giving, Selflessness, Governor Adeleke Tells Muslim Faithfuls




The Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke has congratulated Muslim Ummah in the state and beyond on the successful completion of this year's Ramadan period, describing the 29-day fasting period as a divine grace for spiritual renewal.

Governor Adeleke rejoices with Muslim faithfuls for the ease with which Allah makes the observance of one of the pillars of Islam, charging them to sustain the culture of giving and selflessness that characterised the Holy month.

The Governor enjoins Osun people to use the occasion of the Eid-el-Fitr to pray for enduring peace and sustainable development for Osun state and Nigeria as a whole, urging Muslims to use their respective"ground of prayers and homes to seek the face of Allah subhanawatahallah to frustrate renewed efforts of some selfish political actors to throw our State into chaos out of desperation to seize power through the backdoor."

He rallies the people not to be despaired by the antics of selfish politicians bent on reversing the trend of progress in the state, but maintain faith in Allah who is the most powerful, declaring his unwavering commitment to the mission of moving Osun state to a greater height.

"In praise to Allah subhanawatahallah, I rejoice with Osun Muslim Ummah for the grace of witnessing the conclusion of this year's Holy month of Ramadan. The 29-day of fasting is Allah's way of bringing us closer to Him in worship and impressing on us the significance of charity," the Governor was quoted as saying.

"While the time for celebration is here, it is however important to impress on faithfuls to make good meaning of the invaluable lessons that the Holy month afforded and let the culture of selfless service, peace and love for fellow human beings be reflected in you always.

"It is my earnest wish for the celebration to be done in modest, and that we must extend hands of giving to families struggling with ends meet so as to let the wind of the joyful moment spread to their homes too, in accordance with the teaching of the Holy Prophet of Allah, Mohammad (S.A.W)."

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...
