Ikole-Ekiti | Thursday, May 28, 2026 – Following the goodwill message extended to the Muslim Ummah in Ekiti North 1 (Ikole/Oye) Federal Constituency by Rep. Akintunde Rotimi on the occasion of Eid-el-Kabir, the AkinỌmỌAkin Constituency Office further provided targeted financial support exceeding ₦5 million to the core leadership of the Muslim community across the constituency.
The intervention was directed at Chief Imams, principal Islamic scholars, and recognised leaders of Muslim organisations across Ikole and Oye Local Government Areas, in furtherance of efforts to strengthen religious leadership structures and support institutions that foster moral guidance, unity, and peaceful coexistence.
While acknowledging that the gesture may not directly benefit every Muslim constituent or supporter across the constituency, Rep. Akintunde Rotimi noted that the intervention is symbolic of the enduring goodwill, appreciation, and solidarity he shares with the Muslim community and the broader constituency.
He further emphasised that beyond seasonal support and symbolic gestures, the collective aspiration of constituents remains sustainable development that works for all people, through improved infrastructure, expanded opportunities, quality education, accessible healthcare, economic empowerment, and policies that advance the common good across every community in Ekiti North 1.
Leaders of the Muslim community who benefited from the intervention expressed appreciation for the gesture and offered prayers for divine guidance, continued strength, and greater accomplishments for the lawmaker in his service to the constituency and the nation.
The lawmaker urged Muslim faithful across Ekiti North 1 (Ikole/Oye) Federal Constituency to continue to uphold the virtues of peace, unity, tolerance, and selfless service, while praying for sustained progress and prosperity in the constituency, Ekiti State, and Nigeria.
Once again, Eid Mubarak to all Muslim faithful.
