As the blessed month of Ramadan comes to a peaceful close, our hearts are filled with gratitude to Almighty Allah for the strength, patience, and grace to complete this sacred journey. It is in this spirit that Hon. Abolade Femi Gabriel, fondly known as Yerima, extends his warmest Eid-el-Fitri greetings to every Muslim family across Ona Ara and beyond.
Eid is more than a celebration—it is a reminder. A reminder of sacrifice, of self-discipline, of compassion for those in need, and of our shared humanity. The long days of fasting and the quiet nights of prayer have shaped us, softened our hearts, and drawn us closer to Allah. Now, as we step into the joy of Eid, we must carry these lessons with us.
Hon. Yerima calls on the good people of Ona Ara to embrace this season not just with celebration, but with purpose. Let this be a time to forgive, to give generously, to strengthen family bonds, and to uplift one another. The true essence of Ramadan lives on in how we treat others after it ends.
“The completion of Ramadan is not just the end of a fast—it is a victory of the soul,” he reflects. “Let us not leave behind the values we have built. Let them guide our daily lives, our relationships, and our community.”
In marking this special occasion, Hon. Yerima has also unveiled commemorative Eid billboards across key areas in Ona Ara. These are not just displays—they are symbols of unity, gratitude, and shared progress. They honor the leadership and vision that continue to shape Oyo State, while reminding us all of the strength we have when we stand together.
As families gather, as laughter fills our homes, and as prayers rise in thanksgiving, Hon. Yerima offers heartfelt prayers for every household—that Allah grants peace, prosperity, and unending blessings.
May this Eid bring renewed hope, deeper faith, and a stronger sense of community to us all.
Eid Mubarak.
