EID-EL-FITR MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE OF THE EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN, AGATU LOCAL GOVERNMENT, BENUE STATE.
Sunday, 30th March, 2025.
On behalf of the Executive Members, Legislative Arm, Management, Staff and good people of Agatu local government, I felicitate with our Muslim faithful on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr after the completion of the Ramadan fast, a major pillar of Islam.
The Holy Month of Ramadan is an opportunity for our Muslim brothers and sisters to deepen their relationship with Allah, promote a life of sacrifice, charity, and love for one another.
It was a month of intense worship, absolute Piety and love for one another.
It’s a month of equality and unity .
To be blessed and honoured to be alive to witness the month is an invaluable opportunity and none should discard the lessons learnt in it.
The period of the Eid celebration was a clarion call for Nigerians to imbibe the lessons of the season such as selfless service to God and humanity as well as a sincere commitment to righteous conduct in private and public life
My administration is committed to promoting peaceful co-existence in local government and the state, I urge all Muslims in Agatu local to sustain these values even after the Holy month to build a prosperous and peaceful Agatu Local Government where everyone can actualise their dreams.
It is therefore incumbent upon all of us, irrespective of religious, ethnic and political differences, to work assiduously towards ensuring the success of the Nigerian project.
I pledge to continue to do my utmost best to safeguard the lives and property of the people of Agatu.
My administration will leave no stone unturned, to further better the lives of the people of the local government.
Happy Eid-Fitr Celebration!
Hon. Amb. James Melvin Ejeh,
Executive Chairman, Agatu Local Government.
