The Chairman, Oyo TESCOM, Mrs Olubukola Oladipo has saluted Muslim and Christians especially, teaching and non-teaching staff of the Oyo State Teaching Service Commission as Ramadan and Lenten seasons begin.
In a statement personally signed by Mrs Oladipo on Wednesday, the technocrat congratulated Christians and Muslims for Lent and Ramadan, urging them to use the fasting period to seek the face of God in prayers.
She also went ahead to task the people of Oyo State in particular to be more steadfast in prayers to God against many untoward occurrences in the state and seek advancement of shared peace and prosperity.
In her words, “as we mark the beginning of these fasting seasons, we must abstain from worldly pleasures, maintain steadfastness in prayers and total submission to the will of God.
“It is my belief that the start of these two major religions’ activities on the same day is not a mere coincidence but God’s design for our nation, in essence, our state for peace and stability.
“Let us all continue to pray for the success of the present administration in the state under the leadership of His Excellency, Engineer Seyi Makinde.”
