We should all support and pray for the president, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to succeed in turning the fortunes of our beloved country positively,\u201d Senator Barau stated.<\/p>\n<p>In his own, Senator Adeola (APC Ogun West), urged Muslims to continue in all the pious and righteous ways associated with Ramadan, adding that tolerance and peaceful co-existence should be a way of life for all of us as the government attempts to find solutions to myriads of societal problems.<\/p>\n<p>The lawmaker, in the statement signed by his Media Adviser, Kayode Odunaro, expressed hope that the spiritual lessons of Ramadan and the injunctions of Holy Prophets on self-denial, love, peaceful co-existence, fairness and justice will continue in their daily lives and relations with people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us continue to renew our hope for a secure nation and a prosperous future for the citizenry under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I am sure our prayers during the past month while fasting will be answered in due course,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>The lawmaker called on Muslims and other Nigerians to continue to pray against insecurity bedevilling the nation and the wisdom for leaders to find lasting solutions to these killings, stressing that the religion of Islam is a religion of peace, kindness, and love of Allah and fellow human beings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
