As Muslims across the world mark the successful completion of the month-long Ramadan fasting, the senator representing Cross River Central Senatorial District, Senator Prof. Sandy Ojang Onor has felicitated with Muslim faithfuls across the District, State and Nation at large while calling for peaceful coexistence among Nigerians.
In a goodwill message sighted by TheLumineNews, Sen. Onor commended Muslims faithfuls for a successful conclusion of this year’s Ramadan on a good note despite the current security challenges facing the nation.
The message reads in parts “lt’s rewarding to commend our Muslims brothers and sisters for their adherence to the holy scripture through dedicated fasting, charitable sacrifices and steadfastness in the midst of subversive actions and intentions intended to create a weak and vulnerable system in our polity by rabble-rousing elements.”
The lawmaker further held that: “When we uphold and practice the teachings of our holy books, love, peace and tolerance would reign amongst us. And as the Holy Month of Ramadan offered us a fresh opportunity to deepen and strengthen our relationship with Allah, it’s also an opportunity for us to promote love, tolerance and peaceful coexistence amongst ourselves. On behalf of my family and the good people of Cross River Central Senatorial District, I wish you Allah’s continuous guidance and protection, Amen.”
