It is a season that calls us to embody the virtues of sacrifice, charity, tolerance, and love for one another, regardless of religion or background.
“As an administration, we remain committed to fostering peace, unity, and religious harmony across Ondo State. I urge you to use this celebration to pray for the continued peace and progress of our dear state and Nigeria at large, and to extend a hand of generosity to the less privileged around you.

“May Almighty Allah accept your prayers, sacrifices, and good deeds, and grant you and your families abundant blessings, good health, and prosperity.
“Eid Mubarak! Taqabbalallahu minna wa minkum”
