The President of the Mike Omotosho Foundation, Dr Mike Omotosho has called on Muslims in the country to pray for peace and development of Nigeria during the Holy month of Ramadan.

Dr. Omotosho made the call in a statement by his Director General, Omotosure Support Group, Mr. Isaac Amao and made available to newsmen in Abuja on Saturday.

He called on the people of Nigeria to strictly adhere to the dictates and teachings of Islam during this Holy month of Ramadan and beyond.

Dr. Omotosho also urged Muslims to strive to imbibe in greater measure, the virtues of piety, self-discipline, tolerance, justice, fairness and compassion for the less-privileged and fear of Allah in all their undertakings, which the Ramadan fast promotes.

He said fasting, which is one of the five pillars of Islam, should not be just a period for abstaining from food and drink, but also be used to make greater sacrifice by praying fervently for peace, security and rapid socio-economic development of the country in general.

Omotosho also called for special prayers for our leaders starting from the Councillors upto the President and Commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

He then wished all Muslims a successful and spiritually gratifying Ramadan fast.
